ÖNORM EN 17314

This document specifies the tests for the verification of restraint systems against the risk of lateral ejection of the operator for: — counterbalanced lift trucks with centre control, sit down and non-elevating operator position (see EN ISO 3691-1:2015, 4.7.8), with a rated capacity up to and including 10 000 kg; — tractors as defined in EN 12312-15 (airport ground equipment); — burden carriers (as defined in ISO 5053-1:2015, 3.25) with a maximum speed of more than 25 km/h with seated operator; — other types of industrial trucks equipped with such a restraint system. Counterblanced lift trucks, tractors and burden carriers are named hereafter as trucks. This document describes type tests for a specific combination of truck and restraint system. This standard does not cover: — the risk due to frontal ejection; — the monitoring of the protective position of the operator restraint system as defined in EN 16307-1, 4.16; — the testing of seat belts. The document is not applicable for the retrofit of trucks with restraint systems. This document does not give any requirements on the need for a restraint system.
