This document defines: - general design rules for access to the metro cab, - front visibility conditions including positions of people, - assessment. This document applies to metro vehicles with or without driver, excluding shuttles used for short distance transportation. Metro vehicle definition is according to EN 17343.

This document applies to rear loaded refuse collection vehicles (RCV), as defined in 3.2, regardless of the power drive. This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the rear loaded RCV, when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable, throughout its foreseeable lifetime, as defined in Clause 4. This document is applicable to the design and construction of the rear loaded RCV so as to ensure that it is fit for its intended function and can be operated, cleaned (including unblocking), adjusted and maintained during its entire lifetime. It is not applicable to the end of life of the rear loaded RCV. This document describes and defines the safety requirements of rear loaded RCVs excluding the interface tailgate/discharge door with the lifting device(s) and the lifting device(s) itself and excluding loader cranes, which could be mounted on the RCV. Lifting device(s) and the interface with the tailgate/discharge door are covered in EN 1501-5:202X. Loader cranes are covered in EN 12999:2020+A1:2025 and those installed on RCVs are covered in EN 1501-5:202X. This document also applies to compactors, operated on a truck for collecting purposes. This document is not applicable to: - operation in severe conditions, e.g. extreme environmental conditions such as: - below −20 °C and above +40 °C temperatures; - tropical environment; - wind velocity in excess of 75 km/h; - contaminating environment; - corrosive environment; - operation in potentially explosive atmospheres; - handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. hot refuses, acids and bases, radioactive materials, contaminated refuse, especially fragile loads, explosives); - operation on ships. This document is not applicable to machinery which is manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.

This document applies to side loaded refuse collection vehicle (RCV), as defined in 3.2, regardless of the power drive. This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the side loaded RCV, when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable, throughout its foreseeable lifetime, as defined in Clause 4. This document is applicable to the design and construction of the side loaded RCV so as to ensure that it is fit for its intended function and can be operated, cleaned (including unblocking), adjusted and maintained during its entire lifetime. It is not applicable to the end of life of the side loaded RCV. This document describes and defines the safety requirements of side loaded RCV excluding the interface with the lifting device(s) and excluding the lifting device itself and excluding loader cranes, which could be mounted on the RCV. Lifting device(s) including the loader cranes and the interface to the RCV are covered in EN 1501-5:202X. Loader cranes are covered in EN 12999:2020+A1:2025 and those installed on RCVs are covered in EN 1501-5:202X. This document also applies to compactors, operated on a truck for collecting purposes. This document is not applicable to: - operation in severe conditions, e.g. extreme environmental conditions such as: - below −20 °C and above +40 °C temperatures; - tropical environment; - wind velocity in excess of 75 km/h; - contaminating environment; - corrosive environment; - operation in potentially explosive atmospheres; - handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. hot refuses, acids and bases, radioactive materials, contaminated refuse, especially fragile loads, explosives); - operation on ships. This document is not applicable to machinery which is manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.

This document applies to a front loaded refuse collection vehicle (RCV), as defined in 3.2, regardless of the power drive. This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to the front loaded RCV, when it is used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable, throughout its foreseeable lifetime, as defined in Clause 4. This document is applicable to the design and construction of the front loaded RCV so as to ensure that it is fitted for its intended function and can be operated, cleaned (including unblocking), adjusted and maintained during its entire lifetime. It is not applicable to the end of life of the front loaded RCV. This document describes and defines the safety requirements of the front loaded RCV excluding the interface with the lifting device(s) and excluding the lifting device itself and excluding loader cranes, which could be mounted on the RCV. Lifting device(s), loader cranes and their interface to the RCV are covered in EN 1501-5:202X. Loader cranes are covered in EN 12999:2020+A1:2025 and those installed on RCVs are covered in EN 1501-5:202X. This document also applies to compactors, operated on a truck for collecting purposes. This document is not applicable to: - operation in severe conditions, e.g. extreme environmental conditions such as: - below −20 °C and above +40 °C temperatures; - tropical environment; - wind velocity in excess of 75 km/h; - contaminating environment; - corrosive environment; - operation in potentially explosive atmospheres; - handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. hot refuses, acids and bases, radioactive materials, contaminated refuse, especially fragile loads, explosives); - operation on ships. This document is not applicable to machinery which is manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.

This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to lifting devices used for the emptying of designated refuse containers into RCVs and their fitting onto the RCVs when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable throughout their foreseeable lifetime as defined in Clause 4. This document is applicable to the design and construction of the refuse container lifting devices and the mounting of other lifting devices so as to ensure that they are fitted for their function and can be operated, adjusted and maintained during their entire lifetime. It is not applicable to the end of life of the lifting devices. This document describes and gives the safety requirements of the lifting devices for emptying refuse containers and their interfaces with the corresponding parts of the RCVs and will be used in conjunction with EN 1501-1:202X for the rear, side and front loaded RCVs. It refers to EN 1501-4:2023 for the noise test code. This document is not applicable to: - operation in severe conditions e.g. extreme environmental conditions such as: - temperatures below −20 °C and above +40 °C; - tropical environment; - wind velocity in excess of 75 km/h; - contaminating environment; - corrosive environment; - operation in potentially explosive atmospheres; - lifting and transportation of persons; - emptying refuse containers other than those manufactured according to EN 840:2020 series, EN 12574:2017 series, EN 13071:2019 series, and those described as paladin, diamond, skip containers; - loading bulky refuse by means of platform or forks; - handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. hot refuses, acids and bases, radioactive materials, contaminated refuse, especially fragile loads, explosives); - operation on ships; - fitting and operation on stationary compactors. This document is not applicable to machinery which is manufactured before the date of its publication by CEN.
