Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerand and United Kingdom.EN 13852-2:2004 (E) Introduction This document is NOT harmonized. This document is a type C standard as stated in EN 1070. The machinery concemed and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are indicated in the scope of this document. When provisions of this type C standard are different from those, which are stated in a type B standard, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of other standards, for machines that have been cesigned and buit according to the provisions of this type C standard. The extent to which hazards are covered are indicated in the scope of this document. In addition, machinery should comply as appropriate with EN ISO 12100-1 for hazards, which are not covered by this document.EN 13852-2:2004 (E) 1 Scope This document specifies the safety requirements for floating cranes including their supporting pedestals or structures. This document applies to cranes manufactured after the date of issue of this document. This document does not cover: a) fabrication, assembly, dismantling or changing the configuration of the crane; ») fing accessories, ie. any item between the hook and the loed; ©) design temperature below -20 °C; d) operations at an ambient temperature above 50 °C; @) cranes covered by the Machinery Directive. The significant hazards covered by this document are identified in clause 4 This document includes requirements for lifting of persons. The use of cranes for liting of persons may be subject 'o specitic national regulations. Where National Authorities permit the use of a floating crane for the lifting of persons, the crane would ai least need to fulfil the requirements of this standard and be adopted in accordance with the relevant National regulations for the ifting of persons. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
