Road Surface Treatment Machines - Safety Requirements
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 13020 standard focuses on ensuring the safety of road surface treatment machines used in road construction and maintenance. This standard sets out a range of requirements to be followed during the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of these machines to ensure the well-being of operators and protect them from potential hazards.
The standard emphasizes the need for concepts and features that prioritize operator safety. It provides guidance on designing machines that effectively protect operators from potential risks and hazards associated with road construction and maintenance activities. These may include dangers posed by moving parts, uneven terrain, exposure to chemicals or substances, or potential accidents during operation.
Compliance with this standard is essential to minimize the risk of accidents and injuries to operators during the use of road surface treatment machines.
