Dear Pate,

In sub-chapter 1.6 of my recent published second volume “Electrical Product 
Compliance and Safety Engineering” you will find useful references for the 
applicable standards and EU Directives for the subject product. About RoHS you 
can refer to sub chapter  3.3. If you do not have already the book I can send 
you the relevant pages.
I hope that above will help.

Best Regards and Be Safe,
Steli

Subject: Re: [PSES] machinery that is moving while working, wot CE requirements

Pete --

Machinery Safety Directive
Annex I, sections 1 and 3, maybe even 4. Look at the 12 December 2012 Guidance 
for the MSD for detailed interpretations of what's in and out of scope, and how 
to apply various EHSRs.
Might even be some Type C EN and/or ISO standards. Get a manual on line of a 
similar CE marked product and find their declaration and see when they're using.

EMC Directive
There are likely vehicle specific EN EMC standards to pay attention to. We 
prefer working with labs that have experience on what applies and what doesn't 
re vehicular EMC.

WEEE and RoHS Directives
You are likely outside of scope as professional off road machinery; the 
definitions for such equipment vary slightly between these two directives. 
There are FAQs for these on the official EU website.

Noise Directive
Read the scope and review the examples carefully. You may or may not be in 
scope.

Homologation
This seems to only apply if you will be driving the machine down the highway in 
traffic, but you might want to check. Can get really messy. Requirements can 
vary by country as I recall.

All,         I have a client that is producing a machine that moves while 
working – such as a fork lift or lumber carrier.

               Trying to understand the CE requirements for such equipment.

               What Directives apply? What technical standard apply?  What 
other regulatory issues arise?

               Let me know what the requirements are.
