Foreword
Introduction
1 Scope
2 Identification of main sources and
  operational modes producing vibration that
  might be hazardous to health
  2.1 Identification of main sources and operational
      modes
  2.2 Factors that can combine with vibration to
      increase the likelihood of injury
3 Reduction of vibration at source
  3.1 Travelling on uneven surfaces
  3.2 Operating of working equipment (tools)
  3.3 Information from the manufacturer on the use
      of tools and accessories
  3.4 Vibrating tools mounted to the machinery
  3.5 Engine
4 Reduction of transmission of vibration from
  source to the operator
  4.1 General
  4.2 Wheel size and tyres
  4.3 Low-frequency wheel and chassis suspension
  4.4 Low-frequency cab suspension
  4.5 Seat suspension and seat design
5 Elimination of incorrect posture
  5.1 General
  5.2 Improving external cab visibility
  5.3 Design of cab adapted to the operator dimension
      and task
  5.4 Selection of seats adapted to the machine and
      taskle machinery in view of protecting operator's
      safety and health
6 Summary of questions to be considered when evaluating
  the design of mobile machinery in view of
  protecting operator's safety and health
  6.1 General
  6.2 Visibility
  6.3 Cabin construction
  6.4 Selection of seat
Annex A (informative) Vibration isolation
