SSH ISO 8082-1:2009

Self-propelled machinery for forestry — Laboratory tests and performance requirements for roll-over protective structures — Part 1: General machines

Scope

ISO 8082-1:2009 establishes a consistent, reproducible means of evaluating the force–deflection characteristics of roll-over protective structures (ROPS) on self-propelled forestry machines under static loading, and prescribes performance requirements for a representative specimen under such loading. It is applicable to forwarders, skidders, feller-bunchers, processors, harvesters and log loaders, as defined in ISO 6814. It is not applicable to machines having a rotating platform with a cab and boom on the platform, which are addressed by ISO 8082-2.
