ISO International Standard

ISO 8082-2:2011 establishes a consistent and reproducible means of evaluating the load-carrying characteristics of roll-over protective structures (ROPS) on self-propelled forestry machines under static loading, and gives performance requirements for a representative specimen under such loading. It is applicable to machines configured as forestry machines or defined as such in ISO 6814, having a rotating platform with a cab — with or without a fixed cab riser — and boom on the same or a separate platform, intended to be operated by an operator wearing a seat-belt. It is not applicable to forestry machines with elevating cabs.
