When requirements of this document are different from those which are stated in ISO 4254-1, the requirements of this document take precedence over the requirements of ISO 4254-1 for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this document. This document, taken together with ISO 4254-1, deals with all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to loader wagons and forage transport wagons, when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse that are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Annex A). It is not applicable to hazards by presence of other persons than the operator and hazards related to noise and moving parts of the power transmission, excluding strength requirements for guards and barriers. Requirements for remote controls are not dealt with. This document is not applicable to machines manufactured before the date of its publication.
