This document applies to pedestrian propelled industrial platform trucks as defined in 3.1 with a rated capacity up to and including 500 kg, hereinafter referred to as \u201ctrucks\u201d and designed for general purposes. This document does not apply to: \u2014 shopping trolleys referred to in EN 1929, Parts 1 to 4 and 7 (CEN\/TC 291); \u2014 roll containers referred to in EN 12674, Parts 1 to 4 (CEN\/TC 261); \u2014 trucks that are intended to be towed by powered vehicles, e.g. milk-run-trains\/trailer trains\/tugger trains. This document deals with the technical requirements to minimize the hazards listed in Annex C which can arise during commissioning, operation and maintenance of trucks when carried out in accordance with the specifications as intended by the manufacturer. This document does not specify the additional requirements for: \u2014 operation in severe conditions (e.g. extreme environmental conditions such as: freezer applications, high temperatures, corrosive environment); \u2014 operation subject to special rules (e.g. potentially explosive atmospheres); \u2014 handling of loads the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. molten metal, acids\/alkalis, radiating materials, especially brittle loads); \u2014 hazards occurring during construction, transportation, decommissioning and disposal; \u2014 direct contact with foodstuffs; \u2014 operation on gradients or on surfaces other than smooth, level, hard surfaces; \u2014 trucks designed for special applications (e.g., trucks used in hospitals as dinner trollies); \u2014 trucks fitted with hinged or sliding doors. Other possible limitations of the scope of other standards referred to that also apply to this document. Hazards relating to noise, vibration, visibility and static electricity are not dealt with in this document. This document applies to trucks manufactured after the date of issue.<\/p>\n
