the Equipment
Possible risks are evaluated as per Directive no. 89/392/EEC, as modified and inte-
grated by EEC Directives 91/368, 93/44, 93/68 with regard to the layout and operation
of the equipment as applicable to the type and operational specifications of the equip-
ment itself. The operational specifications of the tilting equipment are also examined
with reference to the CUNA tables NC 173-01, NC 173-02, NC 173-03, NC 173-04,
and NC 173-05.
ESSENTIAL HEALTH AND SAFETY REQUIREMENTS.
Design and Manufacture.
The design and manufacture conform to all requirements set forth in the Directives.
They are carried out in conformity with the requirements dictated by the Italian MIN-
ISTRY OF TRANSPORT - M.C.T.C. Headquarters, and CUNA standards, where
applicable.
The main structural elements are subjected to stability calculations. The safety levels
are those imposed by the standards, imposing a safety coefficient not less than 2.5
times the yield stress of the material. The vehicle, in all its variants, has achieved the
type homologation. A declaration of conformity is released for each vehicle sold, re-
ferring to all its components according to the type ratified. The materials and compo-
nents used are those listed in the "References for Upper Structure Elements" Section.
