Volvo EC60E, Operator'S Manual, Page: 139 / 342

Standard ISO 5006 "Earthmoving machinery-
Operator's field of view" deals with the operator's
visibility around the machine and is meant to be
used for measuring and evaluating the visibility.
The machine is tested by methods and
performance criteria according to this standard. The
visibility method used may not include all aspects
of the operator's visibility, but provides information
for determining if additional devices for indirect
visibility, such as warning systems, are necessary.
The test was performed on machines with standard
equipment and attachment. If the machine is
modified or fitted with other equipment or
attachment, which results in impaired visibility, it
should be re-tested according to ISO 5006.
If other equipment or attachments are used and the
visibility has been impaired, the operator should be
informed.
Conforming to the standard is a requirement in EU-
countries and provides for improved visibility
around the machine.
