1.5.21.   Work lamp

‘Work lamp’ means a device for illuminating a working area or process.

1.6.   Illuminating surface of a lamp

1.6.1.   Illuminating surface of a lighting device

‘Illuminating surface of a lighting device’ (points 1.5.7 to 1.5.10) means the orthogonal projection of the full aperture of the reflector in a transverse plane. If the lamp glass (or glasses) extend(s) over part only of the full aperture of the reflector, then the projection of that part only is taken into account. In the case of a dipped-beam headlamp, the illuminating surface is limited on the side of the cut-off by the apparent projection of the line of the cut-off on to the lens. If the reflector and glass are adjustable, the mean adjustment should be used.

1.6.2.   Illuminating surface of a signalling lamp other than a reflex reflector

‘Illuminating surface of a signalling lamp other than a reflex reflector’ (points 1.5.11 to 1.5.19) means the orthogonal projection of the lamp in a plane perpendicular to its axis of reference and in contact with the exterior light-emitting surface of the lamp, this projection being bounded by the edges of screens situated in this plane, each allowing only 98 % of the total luminous intensity of the light to persist in the direction of the axis of reference. To determine the lower, upper and lateral limits of the illuminating surface, only screens with horizontal or vertical edges shall be used.

1.6.3.   Illuminating surface of a reflex reflector

‘Illuminating surface of a reflex reflector’ (point 1.5.20) means the orthogonal projection of the reflecting surface of the reflex reflector in a plane perpendicular to its axis of reference and bounded by planes touching the outer edges of the light projection surface of the reflex reflector and parallel to this axis. To determine the lower, upper and lateral limits of the illuminating surface, only vertical and horizontal planes shall be used.

1.6.4.   Exterior light-emitting surfaces

‘Exterior light-emitting surfaces’, for a defined direction of observation, means the orthogonal projection of the surface of light emission in a plane perpendicular to the direction of observation (see drawing in Appendix 1).

1.7.   Axis of reference

‘Axis of reference’ means the characteristic axis of the light signal determined by the manufacturer of the lamp for use as the direction of reference (H = 0°, V = 0°) for photometric measurements and when fitting the lamp on the tractor.

1.8.   Centre of reference

‘Centre of reference’ means the intersection of the axis of reference with the exterior light-emitting surface, specified by the manufacturer of the lamp.

1.9.   Angles of geometric visibility

‘Angles of geometric visibility’ means the angles which determine the field of the minimum solid angle in which the exterior light-emitting surface of the lamp must be visible. That field of the solid angle is determined by the segments of a sphere of which the centre coincides with the centre of reference of the lamp and the equator is parallel with the ground. These segments are determined in relation to the axis of reference. The horizontal angles β 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 exterior light-emitting surface of the lamp.

This shall not apply to any obstacles existing at the time when the lamp is approved if approval is required.

1.10.   Extreme outer edge

‘Extreme outer edge’ on either side of the tractor means the plane parallel with the median longitudinal plane of the tractor and coinciding with its lateral outer edge, disregarding the projection:

| 1.10.1. | of tyres near their point of contact with the ground and connections for tyre-pressure gauges; |
| --- | --- |

1.10.1.

| --- | --- |

1.10.4.

of side direction indicator lamps, end-outline marker lamps, front and rear position (side) lamps and parking lamps;

| 1.10.5. | of customs seals affixed to the tractor and devices for securing and protecting such seals. |
| --- | --- |

1.10.5.

of customs seals affixed to the tractor and devices for securing and protecting such seals.

1.11.   Overall width

‘Overall width’ means the distance between the two vertical planes defined in point 1.10 above.

1.12.   A single lamp

‘A single lamp’ means any combination of two or more lamps, whether identical or not, having the same function and colour, if it comprises devices, the projection of whose aggregate light-emitting surfaces in a given transverse plane occupies 60 % or more of the area of the smallest rectangle circumscribing the projections of the light-emitting surfaces of the aforementioned lamps, provided that such combination is, where approval is required, approved as a single lamp.

This possible combination does not apply to main-beam headlamps, dipped-beam headlamps and front fog lamps.

1.13.   Two lamps or an even number of lamps

‘Two lamps’ or ‘an even number of lamps’ means a single light-emitting surface in the shape of a band, if placed symmetrically in relation to the median longitudinal plane of the tractor and extending on both sides to within not less than 400 mm of the extreme outer edge of the tractor, and being not less than 800 mm long. The illumination of such a surface shall be provided by not less than two light sources placed as close as possible to its ends. The light-emitting surface may be constituted by a number of juxtaposed elements on condition that the projections of the several individual light-emitting surfaces in the same transverse plane occupy not less than 60 % of the area of the smallest rectangle circumscribing the projections of those individual light-emitting surfaces.

1.14.   Distance between two lamps

‘Distance between two lamps’ which face in the same direction, means the distance between the orthogonal projections in a plane perpendicular to the direction in question of the outlines of the two illuminating surfaces as defined according to the case mentioned in point 1.6.

1.15.   Optional lamp

‘Optional lamp’ means a lamp the presence of which is left to the discretion of the manufacturer.

1.16.   Operational tell-tale

‘Operational tell-tale’ means a tell-tale showing whether a device that has been actuated is operating correctly or not.

1.17.   Circuit-closed tell-tale

‘Circuit-closed tell-tale’ means a tell-tale showing that a device has been switched on but not showing whether it is operating correctly or not.

| --- | --- | --- |

3.10.3.

Zones 1 and 2, as seen by the observer, are limited in their respective planes as follows:

3.10.3.1.

as regards height, by two horizontal planes which are 1 m and 2,2 m respectively above the ground;

| 3.10.3.2. | 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. |
| --- | --- |

3.10.3.2.

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.
