These segments are determined in relation to the axis of reference. The horizontal angles ß correspond to the longitude and the vertical angles α to the latitude. There must be no obstacle on the inside of the angles of geometric visibility to the propagation of light from any part of the apparent surface of the lamp observed from infinity. If measurements are taken closer to the lamp, the direction of observation must be shifted parallel to achieve the same accuracy.
  On the inside of the angles of geometric visibility no account is taken of obstacles, if they were already presented when the lamp was type-approved.
  If, when the lamp is installed, any part of the apparent surface of the lamp is hidden by any further parts of the vehicle, proof shall be furnished that the part of the lamp not hidden by obstacles still conforms to the photometric values prescribed for the approval of the device as an optical unit (see explanatory figure below).

5.   GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

5.1.   The lighting and light-signalling devices must be so fitted that under normal conditions of use, and notwithstanding any vibration to which they may be subjected, they retain the characteristics laid down in this Regulation and enable the tractor to comply with the requirements of this Regulation. In particular, it shall not be possible for the adjustment of the lamps to be inadvertently disturbed.

| 5.1.1. | Tractors must be equipped with electrical connectors to enable a detachable light-signalling system to be used. In particular tractors must be fitted with the permanently connected socket outlet specified in ISO standard 1724 (1980) (Electrical connections for vehicles with 6 or 12 volt electrical systems applying more specifically to private motor cars and lightweight trailers or caravans), ISO 1185 (1975) (Electrical connections between towing and towed vehicles having 24 volt electrical systems used for international commercial transport purposes). In the case of ISO standard 1185 (1975), the function of contact 2 shall be restricted to the rear position (side) lamp and to the end-outline marker lamp on the left-hand side. |

5.1.1.

Tractors must be equipped with electrical connectors to enable a detachable light-signalling system to be used. In particular tractors must be fitted with the permanently connected socket outlet specified in ISO standard 1724 (1980) (Electrical connections for vehicles with 6 or 12 volt electrical systems applying more specifically to private motor cars and lightweight trailers or caravans), ISO 1185 (1975) (Electrical connections between towing and towed vehicles having 24 volt electrical systems used for international commercial transport purposes). In the case of ISO standard 1185 (1975), the function of contact 2 shall be restricted to the rear position (side) lamp and to the end-outline marker lamp on the left-hand side.

5.2.   The illuminating lamps described in paragraphs 2.5.8, 2.5.9 and 2.5.10 shall be so installed that correct adjustment of their orientation can easily be carried out.

5.3.   For all light-signalling devices, the reference axis of the lamp when fitted to the tractor must be parallel with the bearing plane of the tractor on the road and with the longitudinal plane of the tractor.

5.5.4.

have substantially identical photometric characteristics.

5.6.   On tractors whose external shape is asymmetrical, the requirements of paragraphs 5.5.1 and 5.5.2 shall be satisfied as far as possible. These requirements shall be regarded as having been met if the distance of the two lamps from the median longitudinal plane and from the bearing plane on the ground is the same.

5.7.   Lamps having different functions may be independent or be grouped, combined or reciprocally incorporated in one device, provided that each such lamp complies with the requirements applicable to it.

5.8.   The maximum height above ground shall be measured from the highest point and the minimum height from the lowest point of the illuminating surface. In the case of passing lamps, the minimum height in relation to the ground is measured from the lowest edge of the reflector.

  If there are several points of contact, the one furthest towards the front shall be selected for zone 1 and the one furthest towards the rear shall be selected for zone 2. |
| --- | --- |

5.10.3.2.

as regards width, by two vertical planes which make an angle of 15° towards the front and rear respectively, and towards the outside by reference to the median plane of the tractor, passing through the point (or points) of contact of vertical planes which are parallel with the median longitudinal plane of the tractor, and limiting the overall width of the tractor when on wide track.

If there are several points of contact, the one furthest towards the front shall be selected for zone 1 and the one furthest towards the rear shall be selected for zone 2.

Mandatory for all direction-indicator lamps not directly visible to the driver. It may be optical or auditory or both.

If it is optical, it shall be a flashing light which, in the event of the malfunction of any of the direction-indicator lamps other than the repeating side direction-indicator lamps, is either extinguished, or remains alight without flashing, or shows a marked change of frequency. If it is entirely auditory, it shall be clearly audible and shall show a marked change of frequency in the event of any malfunction.

If a tractor is equipped to tow a trailer, it must be equipped with a special optical operational tell-tale for the direction indicator lamps on the trailer unless the tell-tale of the drawing vehicle allows the failure of any one of the direction-indicator lamps on the tractor combination thus formed to be detected.

| 6.5.11. | OTHER REQUIREMENTS |

The lamps shall be a flashing lamp flashing 90 ± 30 times per minute. Operation of the light-signal control shall be followed within not more than one second by the appearance of the light and within not more than one and one-half seconds by the first extinction.

If a tractor is authorised to tow a trailer, the control of the direction-indicators on the tractor shall also operate the indicators of the trailer.

In the event of failure, other than a short circuit, of one direction-indicator, the others must continue to flash but the frequency under this condition may be different from that specified.
