This European Standard specifies the requirements and methods of their verification for the inspection of air-assisted sprayers for bush and tree crops in use. It relates mainly to the condition of the sprayer in respect of safety hazards for the test operator, the potential risk of environmental contamination and opportunities to achieve good application. NOTE Minimum requirements are given concerning operator safety in the use of work equipment at work directive 95/63/CE, amending directive 89/655/CEE, and can be complimented by national regulations.
