| Title | This document specifies the requirements for machines and associated equipment without rail wheels, designed and intended for work on railway infrastructure, henceforward referred to as ‘MWR’. This document also covers MWR intended for use on urban rail infrastructure. The types of MWR covered by this document also include: — MWR with power driven mechanisms; — MWR with manually driven mechanisms; — hand-held machines (with ability to attach to track, e.g. rail cutting, drilling, milling machines). NOTE 1 More information on railway maintenance and infrastructure inspection machines fitted with rail wheels can be found in other European standards, see CEN/TR 17498:2020. This document specifies the requirements to deal with the common hazards during transport, assembly and installation, commissioning, working, including setting up, programming, and process changeover, operation, cleaning, fault finding, maintenance and decommissioning of MWR and associated equipment when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable. The requirements set out in this document are intended to control the hazards associated with the engineering aspects of MWR. NOTE 2 It is anticipated that a safe system of work (see EN 16704 1:2016+A1:2021) can additionally be required. NOTE 3 It is anticipated that the manufacturer of the MWR will comply with the Machinery Directive/Machinery Regulations. The hazards which exist in all mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic and other components of MWR and which are dealt with in other relevant European standards are not within the scope of this document. Where necessary, references are made to appropriate standards of this type. |
