ISO 8082:2003

Self-propelled machinery for forestry — Roll-over protective structures — Laboratory tests and performance requirements

ISO 8082:2003 establishes a consistent, reproducible means of evaluating the force-deflection characteristics of roll-over protective structures (ROPS) on self-propelled forestry machines under static loading, and prescribes performance requirements for a representative specimen under such loading. It is applicable to forwarders, skidders, feller-bunchers, processors, harvesters and loaders, as defined in ISO 6814. It is not applicable to machines having a rotating platform with a cab and boom on the platform.
