US standards for agricultural equipment safety

American Society of Agricultural Engineers Standard: ASAE S 318.6

The main content of this standard is consistent with the earlier amendment standard S318.3.

This standard replaces the standard ASAER 275, adopted in June 1964, to improve the safety of agricultural machinery and the standard R280 adopted in December 1964, to improve the safety of agricultural tractors. This standard was recommended by the Engineering and Technical Policy Committee of the Institute of Agricultural and Industrial Assembly, approved by the Technical Committee of the Department of Power Machinery of the American Agricultural Engineers Association, adopted by the American Society of Agricultural Engineers in December 1968, revised in December 1969, amended in February 1972, and Reclassification, edited in 1972, revised again in December 1973, March 1977, March 1978.

The scope and scope of the first item 1.1 This standard provides for the driver and other personnel how to ensure reasonable personal safety in the normal operation and maintenance of agricultural equipment.

Article 2 Definitions 2.1 Agricultural equipment refers to the design of agricultural tractors, self-propelled machines, agricultural implements and their associated work machines that are mainly used for agricultural operations.

2.2 The propeller is a tractor or a self-propelled machine.

2.3 Protection refers to a barrier to reduce physical contact between unintentional people and moving parts.

2.4 Inadequate contact refers to the contact of a person with a dangerous movement mechanism or other dangerous objects caused by an accidental movement of a person during work or maintenance.

2.5 Hazardous movement means a potential source of injury caused by moving parts, which can cause serious personal injury if the person comes into direct contact with it or the clothes of a person are wound around it.

2.6 Engagement point refers to the meshing point of the gear and the point where the belt or chain turns to the pulley, sprocket or tensioner.

2.7 Position protection refers to a protective measure against danger. When the dangerous component is covered by other parts of the machine, or because of its remote location, inadvertent contact can be minimized during normal operation and maintenance.

2.8 PTO shaft refers to the shaft that provides rotational power to the implement at the rear of the tractor.

2.9 Auxiliary power output shaft is an out-of-axis shaft that provides rotational power to the implement other than the rear of the tractor, usually located on the front or side of the tractor.

2.10 Tool drive line refers to the transmission system that transmits power from the tractor's power output shaft to the first part of the implement (such as gear pair, pulley, sprocket or flywheel) through the shaft, the universal joint, and the solid components of the coupling.
