This European standard specifies requirements for the environmental preservation and their verification for design and construction of manure spreaders for spreading manure in agriculture and horticulture. It specifies requirements for the transverse and longitudinal spreading characteristics such as acceptable working widths, steady flow, the stretch within the tolerance zone and the coefficient of variation for the longitudinal spreading. These requirements are limited to the evaluation of spreaders tested with manure as specified in table A.1. This standard is not applicable to manure band-spreaders or to sludge spreaders.
