Summary: This document specifies design requirements for non-powered means of access installed on cranes. Slidable, retractable means of access are excluded from the scope, except movable hoop guards. This document covers means of access to control stations and all access required for maintenance, certain erection and dismantling operations. For those cranes which are intended to be erected and dismantled frequently to change their places of work, e.g. tower cranes, specific requirements for the access needed during these operations are not covered by this document and can be given in the appropriate European Standards for specific crane types. Lighting of means of access is not covered by this document and can be given in the appropriate European Standards for specific crane types. Specification of the required rescue equipment, use of rescue equipment and the adaptation of crane access to the selected rescue equipment, are not covered by this document and can be given in the appropriate European Standards for specific crane types. NOTE Specific requirements for access on particular types of cranes are given in the appropriate European Standard for the particular crane type. The requirements given in this document do not take into account the safety distances related to: - guarding against hazard from moving parts; - relative movement between crane and adjacent structure or the ground/floor; - hazardous surface temperature; - electrical equipment. The significant hazards covered by this document are identified in Annex A. This document is not applicable to cranes manufactured before the date of its publication.

Le présent document spécifie les exigences de conception relatives aux moyens d'accès non motorisés installés sur les appareils de levage à charge suspendue.
