This European Standard establishes a consistent and reproducible means of evaluating the load-carrying characteristics of Roll-Over Protective Structures (ROPS) under static loading, and prescribes performance requirements for a representative specimen under such loading.
It applies to the following seated design operator-controlled machines as defined in ISO 6165:1997:
- dozers (crawler and wheeled);
- graders;
- loaders (crawler and wheeled);
- earth- and landfill compactors;
- skid-steer loaders and backhoe loaders;
- tractor portion (prime mover) of scrapers and articulated steer dumpers;
- rollers;
- rigid frame dumpers.
