This part of ISO 4254, to be used together with ISO 4254-1, specifies the safety requirements and their
verification for the design and construction of rotary tedders, rotary rakes and rotary tedder–rakes, including
rotary drum rakes, used by one person (the operator) only, having one or several powered rotors, mounted,
semi-mounted, trailed or self-propelled. In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe working
practices, including residual risks, to be provided by the manufacturer.
This part of ISO 4254 is not applicable to:
a) machines with ground-driven tines or ground-wheel–driven tines (e.g. sunflower rakes);
b) parallel bar rakes;
c) chain or endless belt type rakes;
d) pedestrian-controlled tedders and rakes;
e) machines equipped with a pick-up device.
When requirements of this part of ISO 4254 are different from those which are stated in ISO 4254-1, the
requirements of this part of ISO 4254 take precedence over the requirements of ISO 4254-1 for machines that
have been designed and built according to the provisions of this part of ISO 4254.
