Machinery for forestry - Falling-object protective structures (FOPS) - Laboratory tests and performance requirements (ISO 8083:2006)
Forstmaschinen - Schutzeinrichtungen gegen herabfallende Gegenstände (FOPS) - Laborprüfungen und Leistungsanforderungen (ISO 8083:2006)
Overview
Special forestry machinery needs a falling-object protective structure (FOPS) standard of its own. It is recognized that there are various classes and sizes of forestry machinery that operate in a variety of environmental conditions as well as variations in log size the machines are capable of handling. Therefore, two alternative levels of acceptance criteria are given.
