NF EN ISO 6165

<p>ISO 6165:2006 gives terms and definitions and an identification structure for classifying earth-moving machinery designed to perform the following operations: excavation, loading, transportation, and drilling, spreading, compacting or trenching of earth and other materials (e.g. during work on roads and dams, and on building sites). Its purpose is to provide a clear means of identifying machines according to their functions and design configurations.</p>

<p>This document provides vocabulary and an identification structure for classifying earth-moving machinery designed to perform the following operations:</p> <p>—    excavation;</p> <p>—    loading;</p> <p>—    transportation;</p> <p>—    drilling, spreading, compacting or trenching of earth, rock and other materials, during work, for example, on roads and dams, in quarries and mines and on building sites.</p> <p>The purpose of this document is to provide a clear means to identify earth-moving machinery according to its function and design configurations which can include additional classifications according to its operating mass and control operator configuration.</p> <p>Annex A provides a procedure based on the identification structure used by this document to classify the machinery and introduce detailed identifications consistent with the logic implied by the structure.</p> <p>Annex B provides a hierarchy of the operator control configurations for earth-moving machinery.</p>
