Overview
ISO 3691-1:2011/Cor 1:2013 is a technical corrigendum to ISO 3691-1:2011, the international standard that specifies safety requirements and verification for self-propelled industrial trucks (excluding driverless trucks, variable-reach trucks and burden‑carrier trucks). Published 1 August 2013 and prepared by ISO/TC 110/SC 2 (material handling - safety of powered industrial trucks), this corrigendum provides a targeted technical correction to clarify standardized lift‑height values used in the standard’s informative annexes.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope: Applies to self-propelled industrial trucks other than driverless, variable‑reach and burden‑carrier types (as per the parent standard).
- Technical Corrigendum focus: Amendment to Annex A (A.2.2) clarifying the standardized lift height (H) for specific truck types.
- The corrigendum replaces the first list item in A.2.2 to specify: for stackers with forks, high‑lift platform trucks with fork‑arm or platform widths up to 690 mm, and for cantilever‑fork trucks with a rated load under 1 000 kg, the standardized lift height H = 2 500 mm.
- Typical areas covered in the parent standard (contextual - scope restricted to safety and verification): structural design, stability, braking and steering, powertrain and hydraulic safety, operator protection, controls/visibility, warning devices, marking and documentation, and test/verification procedures for compliance.
- Standards governance: Correction issued by the ISO technical committee responsible for industrial trucks (ISO/TC 110), ensuring consistency and clarity in dimensional and safety specifications.
Applications
- Manufacturers: Use the corrigendum when designing, testing and certifying self‑propelled industrial trucks to ensure specified lift‑height classifications are applied correctly.
- Safety engineers and test laboratories: Apply the clarified lift‑height value (H = 2 500 mm) in verification, hazard assessments and conformity testing for the listed truck types.
- Procurement and compliance teams: Reference the corrigendum when specifying safety and dimensional requirements in tenders, specifications and regulatory submissions.
- Regulators and certification bodies: Adopt the correction to align inspections and approvals with the authoritative ISO record.
Related Standards
- Refer to the full ISO 3691 series and national occupational safety regulations for complete requirements and for truck types excluded from Part 1 (driverless, variable‑reach, burden‑carrier trucks).
