Study Notes
Safety Distances for Guards
- Safety distance requirements for moving parts are outlined in a table format indicating various dimensions (a, b, c) in millimeters.
- Distances from dangerous moving parts vary depending on the height of the component (a), ranging from 100 to 1100 mm for different configurations.
Hitches for Mobile Machines
- Non-self-propelled mobile machines must be equipped with suitable hitch devices for towing purposes.
- Hitch hook requirements are defined by ISO 6489-1, while towed machines must have drawbar eyes that meet ISO 5692 specifications.
- Drawbars should be centrally located on the tractor with specific dimensions for diameter and thickness to ensure stability.
Jacks and Supports for Stability
- Machines that lack stability when disconnected need an attached jack or support to prevent tilting.
- Jacks must be secured to the machine and properly sized to avoid sinking in soft ground, particularly for trailers over 500 kg or other machines with significant downward force.
- Downward force specifications are defined when the machine is stationary on horizontal ground with specific height requirements.
International Standards Compliance
- The document aligns with Philippine National Standards and incorporates feedback from public hearings for revisions, ensuring conformity with international standards.
- Modification includes improved operational methods and sentence structure to enhance clarity and understanding.
Operator Controls for Agricultural Machinery
- The standard applies to various agricultural equipment, including tractors and pedestrian-operated machines, focusing on control locations and methods of operation.
- Separate brake pedals on wheeled tractors must allow combined control to maintain a straight path during operation.
Control Locations and Operations
- Hand-operated controls must be conveniently located for the operator, with a preference for pull motions for application.
- Parking brakes must have a retention device to prevent accidental release while being easily accessible.
Stop and Speed Controls
- Spark ignition controls must be easily reachable, with specific operational requirements for both hand and foot-operated controls to stop and start the engine.
- Throttle lever operations allow for increasing or decreasing engine speed based on the operator's input.
Safety Features
- Recoil starters should be designed for safe operation, and inertia mechanisms must not be releasable under specific conditions to ensure control during operation.
