1.1.1 EU Directives

Machines supplied by us fulfil the Directive for Machinery 89/ 392/EEC and all supplements. If the machine is being used in another country, it is possible that certain safety regulations and specifications may not be fulfilled for use in that country. For example, priority vehicle warning lamps may be used in some countries, but are forbidden in others.
Please contact our dealer before using the machine if you have any questions regarding the fulfilment of standards and regula­tions in a specific country.
Notes on subsequent installation of electrical and elec­tronic equipment and components
Electrical and electronic equipment and/or components which have been installed subsequently, emit electromagnetic radia­tion which can influence the function of the electronic compo­nents and sections of the machine. This can have an influence on the safety of the machine and endanger persons. For this reason, please ensure that the following safety instructions are observed.
If you are installing electrical or electronic equipment and/or components in the machine and connect them to the vehicle electrical system, you must check at own responsibility that the installations do not cause any disturbance to the vehicle’s elec­tronic system or other components. Above all, you must ensure that any subsequently installed electrical and electronic compo­nents comply with the EMV Directive 89/336/EEC in its current edition and bear the CE mark.
The following requirements also have to be met for subsequent installation of mobile communication systems (e.g. radio, tele­phone):
! Only equipment approved by national legislation (e.g. BZT
approval for Germany) may be used
! The unit must be fixed in position
! Portable or mobile units may only be used inside the vehi-
cles if they are connected to a fixed outside antenna
! The transmitter unit must be spatially separated from the
vehicle’s electronic system
! Make sure when installing the antenna that this is installed
correctly with good earth connection between antenna and vehicle mass
Also observe KOMATSU and manufacturer’s installation instruc­tions for wiring, installation and maximum permitted power con­sumption.

Foreword 1.7 CE-Conforming equipment

1.7.2 Manufacturer-supplied CE-Conforming equipment, according to document 419-93-H1250

The responsibility for observing valid regulations in the case of wheel loaders with "interchangeable equipment" (e.g. bucket or fork-lift) which was not supplied from works lies with the cus­tomer which was subsequently fitted to the machine.
The directives for CE conformity and road-traffic registration are deemed to have been fulfilled when the manufacturer of the equipment confirms fulfilment of the form 419-93-H1250 along­side.
The certification must be sent to the customer and the wheel loader manufacturer. The CE conformity declaration for a spe­cific wheel loader is only legally valid once this has taken place.
The dimensions X1, X2, Y1 and Y2 must be provided by the cus­tomer for approval for use on public roads. (valid in Germany)
The dimension Sh (smallest tyre radius) must be added to the dimension D2.
The figure G (in kg) represents the maximum load (equipment and operating load) which may act upon this point.
