Abstract
This document specifies safety requirements for earth-moving machinery when used for demolition applications. This document is only applicable to the following earth-moving machinery types as described in EN ISO 6165:2022: - hydraulic excavators; - cable excavators. This document does not provide safety requirements for machinery used in conjunction with explosives for the demolition application. This document does not provide requirements for main electrical circuits and drives of machinery when the primary source of energy is an external electrical supply. This document does not provide performance requirements for safety related functions of control system(s). This document deals with significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to earth-moving machinery, when used for demolition application and under conditions foreseen but also taking into account any reasonably foreseeable misuse thereof (see Annex A). The following significant and relevant hazards are not covered in this document: - laser; - lightning. This document is not applicable to earth-moving machinery which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.
