This document specifies safety requirements and their verification for design and construction of transportable,
i.e. self-propelled, mounted, semi-mounted and trailed, wood chippers used in forestry, agriculture, horticulture
and landscaping.
This document applies to chippers, used when stationary, which are manually loaded with wood through a
horizontal or near horizontal infeed chute and where the infeed action is performed by the chipping
components acting as infeed components or by separate integrated infeed components such as rollers or
chain conveyors integral to the infeed chute. The included wood chippers may be powered either by an
external power take-off, hydraulics etc. or by an integral power source such as an internal combustion
engine.
