Part 5 CE certification procedure for construction machine
Basic certification procedure is as follows:
Part 6:Safety notice for the CE certification of construction machinery
1. Special guards like ROPS should be provided for most construction machinery due to its weight, considering the static and working stability of machinery
2. If applicable operating cabinet with seat should provided. The cabinet may also be equipped with FOPS and device to reduce the noise emission from the machinery
3. For construction machinery with travel function, travel brake and quick brake should be equipped. Travel brake is designed according to EN ISO 3450:2011(with wheels) and ISO 10265(with caterpillar).Quick brake is designed according to EN 474-5:2006+A3: 2013
4. Addition safety information should be marked by means of written word or pictogram on the machine and described in the manual in detail. The location of the operating position should have a broad vision to all hazardous zone.
