EN ISO 4254-6 Agricultural machinery - Safety - Part 6: Sprayers and liquid fertilizer distributors - ISO 4254-6:2009, to be used together with ISO 4254-1, specifies the safety requirements and their verification for the design and construction of mounted, semi-mounted, trailed and self-propelled agricultural sprayers for use with pesticide products and liquid fertilizer application, designed for use by one operator only. In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe working practices (including residual risks) to be provided by the manufacturer. ISO 4254-6:2009 is not applicable to pedestrian-controlled sprayers, knapsack sprayers, aerial sprayers or handheld spraying devices (e.g. spray guns).
