This document, together with part 1, deals with all significant hazards for earth-moving machinery hydraulic excavators when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer associated with the whole life time of the machine (see Clause 4). The requirements of this part are complementary to the common requirements formulated in prEN 474-1. This document does not repeat the requirements from prEN 474-1, but adds or replaces the requirements for application for earth moving machinery hydraulic excavators. This part also deals with derivated machinery and derivated use, e.g. lifting operation application, shovel application, log application, grapple application, magnetic plate application. This European Standard is not applicable to hydraulic excavators manufactured before the date of publication of this European Standard by CEN.
