Minimum Performance Criteria for Falling Object Guards for Excavators
J1356_202202
This SAE Recommended Practice applies only to excavators, as defined in ISO 6165, working above ground, near an excavated or free-standing bank or mine face which is higher than the top of the cab, or in demolition applications of free standing buildings or objects higher than the top of the cab.
Rationale:
SAE J1356 is being revised to add tolerance to the drop object for the top guard and to update the orientation of the test push object for the front guard test.
