  Purpose

This part of ISO 16231 specifies principles for the assessment of stability with respect to the design and construction of self-propelled ride-on machines used in agriculture and the hazard of rolling-over or tipping-over, or both, when the machine is used as intended and under the conditions foreseeable by the manufacturer.

This part of ISO 16231 is not applicable to: — machines with an unladen mass lower than 400 kg; — machines covered by other machine specific standards dealing with the protection against roll-over and tip-over (e.g. agricultural tractors, forestry tractors); — hazards associated with road transport operations; — free fall events; — roll-over as a result of impact collisions. This part of ISO 16231 is not applicable to machines which are manufactured before the date of its publication.
