(78/764/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic
Community, and in particular Article 100 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament(
1),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social
Committee(2),
Whereas the technical requirements which tractors must satisfy
pursuant to national laws relate inter alia to the driver'ss eat;
Whereasthe requirementsdiffer from one Member State to another;
whereas it is therefore necessary that all Member States adopt thesame requirements either in addition to or in place of their existingrules, in order, in particular, to allow the EEC type-approval procedure
which wasthe s ubject of Council Directive 74/150/EEC of 4 March
1974 on the approximation of the lawsof the Member Statesrelatingto the type-approval of wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors(

be introduced in respect of each type of tractor;
Whereasthe rulesrelating to driver'ss eatscover not only the require-
ments for their installation on tractors but also the construction of theseats; whereas a harmonized component type-approval proceduremakes it possible for each Member State to check compliance withthe common construction and testing requirements and to inform theother Member Statesof itsfindingsby s ending a copy of the compo-
nent type-approval certificate completed for each type of driver'ss eat;
whereasthe placing of an EEC component type-approval mark on alldriver'ss eatsmanufactured in conformity with the approved type obvi-ates any need for technical checks on those driver's seats in the otherMember States,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
1. Each Member State shall grant EEC component type-approval for
any type of driver's seat which satisfies the construction and testing
requirementslaid down in AnnexesI and II.
2. The Member State which hasgranted EEC component type-
approval shall take the measures required in order to verify, in so faras is necessary and if need be in cooperation with the competent autho-
ritiesin the other Member States , that production modelsconform to
the approved type. Such verification shall be limited to spot checks.
Article 2
Member States shall, for each type of driver's seat which they approve
pursuant to Article 1, issue to the manufacturer or to his authorized
representative, an EEC component type-approval mark conforming tothe model shown in 3.5 of Annex II.
Member States shall take all appropriate measures to prevent the use of
marks liable to create confusion between driver's seats which have been1978L0764 — EN — 05.07.1999 — 009.001 — 2

month send to the competent authorities of the other Member States acopy of the component type-approval certificates, an example of whichisgiven in Annex III, completed for each type of driver'ss eat whichthey approve or refuse to approve.
Article 5
1. If the Member State which hasgranted EEC component type-
approval finds that a number of driver's seats bearing the same EECcomponent type-approval mark do not conform to the type which it
has approved, it shall take the necessary measures to ensure that
production modelsconform to the approved type. The competentauthorities of that State shall advise those of the other Member Statesof the measures taken, which may, if necessary, where there is seriousand repeated failure to conform, extend to withdrawal of EEC compo-nent type-approval. The said authorities shall take the same measures if
they are informed by the competent authoritiesof another Member
State of such failure to conform.
2. The competent authoritiesof the Member Statess hall inform each
other within one month of any withdrawal of EEC component type-approval, and of the reasons for such a measure.

plane of the seat, 150 mm in front of the seat reference point (S)
and at not more than 80 mm above that point, must be at least
450 mm (see figure below).
2.1.3. The depth and width of the surface of seats intended for tractors in
which the minimum rear-wheel track width doesnot exceed
1 150 mm may be reduced to not less than 300 and 400 mm respec-

2.5.Seattests
2.5.1. Determination of the suspension characteristics and the range of
adjustment to the driver's mass
2.5.1.1. The suspension characteristics are determined by a static test. The
range of adjustment to the driver's mass is calculated from the
suspension characteristics. These calculations are not necessary in
the case of seats that cannot be manually adjusted to the driver's
mass.
2.5.1.2. The seat is mounted on a test stand or on a tractor and a load
applied to it, either directly or by meansof a s pecial device; this
load must not differ by more than 5 N from the nominal load.
►M2The measuring error for the suspension travel shall not
exceed ± 1 mm. ◄The load must be applied in accordance with
the procedure laid down in section 3 of Appendix 1.1978L0764 — EN — 05.07.1999 — 009.001 — 9
▼M2
▼B
▼M2
2.5.1.3. A complete characteristic curve representing the deflection of the
suspension system must be plotted from zero load to maximum
load, and back to zero. The load graduations at which the suspen-
sion travel is measured must not exceed 100 N; at least eight
measurement points must be plotted at approximately equal inter-
vals in the suspension travel. The point taken as the maximum
load should be either that at which no further suspension travel can
be measured, or a load of 1 500 N. After each application or
removal of the load, the suspension travel must be measured
200 mm in front of the seat reference point in the median longitu-
dinal plane of the seat surface. After application or removal of the
load, the seat must be allowed to return to its at-rest position.
2.5.1.4. In the case of seats with a mass adjustment scale, the characteristic
curves representing the deflection of the suspension system are
plotted at mass adjustments for drivers having a mass of 50 and
120 kg. In the case of seats without a mass adjustment scale and
with adjustment stops, measurements are taken at the lowest and
the highest mass adjustment. In the case of seats without a mass
adjustment scale or adjustment stops, the adjustment must be so
selected that:
2.5.1.4.1. for the lower mass adjustment limit, the seat just returns to the top
of the suspension travel when the load is removed, and
2.5.1.4.2. for the upper mass adjustment limit, the load of 1 500 N depresses
the seat to the lowest limit of the suspension travel.
2.5.1.5. The mean position of the suspension system is the position which
the seat assumes when it is depressed by half the full travel of the
suspension system.
2.5.1.6. Since the characteristic curves of the suspension system are gener-
ally hysteresis loops, the load must be determined by drawing a
centre line through the loop (see section 8 of Annex I, and sections
A and B of Appendix 2 to Annex II).
2.5.1.7. To determine the limitsof the adjus tment range asa function of the
driver's mass, the vertical forces determined in accordance with
Item 2.5.1.6 for pointsA and B (s ee Appendix 2 to thisAnnex)
must be multiplied by the scale factor 0,13 kg/N.
2.5.2. Determination of lateral stability
2.5.2.1. The seat must be set for the upper limit of the weight adjustment
and connected to the test stand or to the tractor in such a way that
its base plate rests on a rigid plate (test stand) not smaller than the
base plate itself.
2.5.2.2. A test load of 1 000 N is applied to the surface or cushion of the
seat. The point of application must lie 200 mm in front of the seat
reference point (S) and alternately on the two sides 150 mm from
the plane of symmetry through the seat.
2.5.2.3. During application of the load, the variation in the lateral angle of
inclination of the seat surface is measured in the end settings for
horizontal and vertical seat adjustment. The permanent deformation
close to the point of application of the load is not to be taken into
consideration.
2.5.3. Determination of the vertical vibration characteristics
The seat vibration is determined by tests on a test stand and/or a
standard roadway depending on whether the seat is intended for a
class (or classes) of Category A tractor or for a Category B tractor.
2.5.3.1. Testing on the test stand
2.5.3.1.1. The test stand must simulate the vertical vibrations at the point of
attachment of the driver'ss eat. The vibrationsare generated by
meansof an electro-hydraulic device. The s et valuesto be us ed are
either those specified in Appendices ►M44, 5a and 5b ◄to1978L0764 — EN — 05.07.1999 — 009.001 — 10

Annex II for the class of tractor in question or the double-integrated
acceleration signals recorded at the seat attachment of a Category B
tractor moving at a speed of 12 ± 0,5 km/h on a standard roadway
asdefined in Item 2.5.3.2.1. To generate the vibrations , an uninter-
rupted double run of the set values must be used.
The transition from the end of the sequence of acceleration signals
recorded on the standard roadway in the first run to the start of the
second run must be smooth and jolt-free. The measurements must
not be made during the first run of the set values or of the accelera-
tion signals. More values than the 700 laid down in Appendices
►M44, 5a and 5b ◄to Annex II may be used if these values
were calculated, for example, with a cubic Spline function from
the original 700 values.
2.5.3.1.2. Besides an attachment for the test seat, the platform must contain a
steering wheel and footrest. Its configuration must be as shown in
Appendix 6.
2.5.3.1.3. The test stand must have a high degree of flexural and torsional
rigidity and itsbearingsand guidesmus t have no more than the
technically necessary clearance. If the platform is carried on an
oscillating arm, the dimension R must be not less than 2 000 mm
(see Appendix 6). The magnitude of the vibration ratio at frequen-
ciesbetween 0,5 and 5,0 Hz s hall be within the range 1,00 ± 0,05,
measured at intervals not exceeding 0,5 Hz. The phase shift shall
not vary by more than 20º throughout the same frequency range.
2.5.3.2. Testing on a standard roadway
2.5.3.2.1. The roadway consists of two parallel strips spaced according to the
wheel track of the tractor. Both strips must be made of a rigid mate-
rial, such as wood or concrete, and be formed either of blocks set in
a base structure or of a continuous smooth surface. The longitudinal
profile of each track strip is defined by the ordinates of elevation in
relation to a base level; these ordinates are shown in the tables in
Appendix 3. With regard to the roadway, the elevation isdefinedat intervalsof 16 cm along each s trip.
The roadway must be firmly set in the ground and the distance
between the strips must deviate only slightly over its entire length;
the tractor's wheels must be fully supported at all times. Where the
strips are formed of blocks, these must be 6 to 8 cm thick, with a
distance of 16 cm between the centres of the blocks. The length of
the standard roadway shall be 100 m.
The measurements must begin as soon as the axis of the rear axle of
the tractor isperpendicular to point D = 0 on the roadway, and end
ass oon asthe axisof the front axle of the tractor isperpendicular to
point D = 100 of the test roadway (see the table in Appendix 3 to
thisAnnex).
2.5.3.2.2. Measurements shall be taken at a speed of 12 ± 0,5 km/h.
The prescribed speed must be maintained without the use of brakes.
The vibrations must be measured on the seat and at the point where
the seat is attached to the tractor, with a light and a heavy driver.
The speed of 12 km/h must be reached after a run-up track has been
traversed. The surface of this run-up track must be flat and must
join the standard roadway without any change in level.
2.5.3.2.3. The seat must be set for the driver's mass in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
2.5.3.2.4. The tractor must be fitted with a protective frame and/or cab unless
of a type for which thisequipment isnot required. It mus t not carry
any ancillary equipment. Moreover, there must be no ballast on the
wheelsor framework, and no fluid in the tyres .
2.5.3.2.5. The tyres used during the test must have the standard dimensions
and ply-rating, as specified in the manufacturer's instructions. The
depth of the tread must not be less than 65 % of the depth of a
new tread.
2.5.3.2.6. The side-walls of the tyres must not be damaged. The pressure of
the tyre must correspond to the arithmetical mean of the reference1978L0764 — EN — 05.07.1999 — 009.001 — 11

pressures recommended by the tyre manufacturer. The wheel track
must correspond to that used under normal working conditions for
the tractor model on which the seat is fitted.
2.5.3.2.7. The measurements at the point of seat attachment and on the seat
itself must be made during the same run.
For measuring and recording the vibrations, an accelerometer, a
measuring amplifier and a magnetic tape recorder or direct-reading
vibration meter shall be used. The specifications for these instru-
mentsare aslaid down in 2.5.3.3.2 to 2.5.3.3.6.
2.5.3.3. Specifications for tests on roadway and test stand
2.5.3.3.1. Driver'smas s
The tests must be carried out with two drivers: one with a total
mass of 59 ± 1 kg, of which not more than 5 kg may be carried in
a weighting belt around the body; the other with a mass of 98 ± 5 kg
with a maximum mass of 8 kg in the weighting belt.
2.5.3.3.2. Position of the accelerometer
To measure the vibrations transmitted to the driver, an acceler-
ometer isfixed on a flat plate with a diameter of 250 ± 50 mm,
the central part of which must be rigid up to a diameter of 75 mm
and must include a rigid device to protect the accelerometer. This
plate must be placed in the middle of the seat surface between the
seat and the driver and have a non-slip surface.

2.5.3.3.7.2. The test report must give the arithmetic mean value of the rms
valuesof the weighted s eat vibration acceleration (awS) for both the
light driver and the heavy driver. The test report must also give the
ratio of the arithmetic mean of the rmsvaluesof the weighted
vibration acceleration measured on the seat (awS) to the arithmetic
mean of the rmsvaluesof the weighted vibration acceleration
measured at the seat attachment (awB). Thisratio s hall be given to
two decimal places.

2.5.4. Vibration test for tractor seats in accordance with their intended
use
2.5.4.1. A seat intended for use on a class (or classes) of Category A trac-
tors must be tested on a vibration stand using the appropriate set
value signals.
2.5.4.2. A seat intended for use on a type of Category B tractor must be
tested on a standard roadway with a tractor of that type. However,
a simulation test may also be carried out using a set value signal
corresponding to the acceleration curve which was determined
during the standard roadway test with the type of tractor for which
the seat is intended.
2.5.4.3. A seat intended for use only on a particular type of Category A
tractor may also be tested in accordance with the requirements of
2.5.4.2. In thiscas e, component type-approval will be granted only

of seats intended for Category A tractors
2.5.5.1. The test on the vibration test stand shall be carried out in accor-
dance with Item 2.5.3.1. the value awBactually occurring at the seat
attachment during measurement must be determined. In the case of
deviationsfrom the reference value:
a*wB= 2,05 m/s2for class I, category A tractors.
a*wB= 1,5 m/s2for class II, category A tractors.
a*wB= 1,3 m/s2for class III, category A tractors.

set value signal corresponding to t = 0 seconds and end at the set
value signal corresponding to t = 28 or 31 seconds (see table in
Appendices 4, 5a and 5b of this Annex). At least two test runs
must be carried out. The measured values must not deviate from1978L0764 — EN — 05.07.1999 — 009.001 — 13

sequence must be reproduced in 28 or 31 ± 0,5 s.
2.5.6. Procedure used for determining the weighted vibration acceleration
of seats intended for Category B tractors
2.5.6.1. In accordance with the requirementsof Item 2.5.4.2, the s eat vibra-
tion tests are not applicable to a class of tractors, but only to each
tractor type for which the seat is intended.
2.5.6.2. The standard roadway test must be carried out in accordance with
the requirementsof Items2.5.3.2 and 2.5.3.3. The vibration accel-
eration measured on the driver's seat (awS) need not be corrected.
At least two test runs must be carried out on the standard roadway.
The measured values must not deviate from the arithmetic mean by
more than ± 10%.
2.5.6.3. If a bench test is conducted, it must be carried out in association
with a standard roadway test pursuant to the requirements of Items
2.5.3.1 and 2.5.3.3.
2.5.6.4. The vibration test stand shall be adjusted in such a way that the rms
value of the weighted vibration acceleration recorded at the seat
attachment (awB) deviatesby les sthan ± 5 % from the rmsvalue of
the weighted vibration acceleration at the seat attachment recorded
on the standard roadway (a*wF).
In the event of deviationsfrom the value (awF*) measured at the seat
attachment during the test run, the weighted vibration acceleration
recorded at the driver's seat during the test on the test stand must
be corrected asfollows :

Each of the tests on the test stand must be carried out twice. The
measured values must not deviate from the arithmetic mean by
more than ± 5%.
2.5.7. Test for determining the damping characteristics in the resonance
range
2.5.7.1. This test is carried out on the test stand as specified in Item 2.5.3.1.
However, account must be taken of the following:
2.5.7.2. Instead of the set values specified in the second paragraph of Item
2.5.3.1.1 (see Appendices ►M44, 5a and 5b ◄to thisAnnex),
sinusoidal oscillations of ± 15 mm amplitude with a frequency of
0,5 to 2 Hz are generated. The frequency range isto be run through
with a constant rate of frequency change in not less than 60 seconds
or at intervalsno greater than 0,05 Hz with increas ing frequency,
and in an identical manner with decreasing frequency. During this
measurement, it is permissible to filter the signals emitted by the
accelerometersthrough a bandpas sfilter with cut-off frequenciesof
0,5 and 2,0 Hz.
2.5.7.3. The seat is to be loaded with a ballast of 40 kg in the first test and

Methodofdeterminingtheseatreference point(S)
1. DEFINITION OF THE REFERENCE POINT (S)
‘Seat reference point’ (S) meansthe point of inters ection in the median long-
itudinal plane of the seat between the tangential plane at the base of the
padded backrest and a horizontal plane. This horizontal plane intersects the
lower surface of the seat 150 mm in front of the seat reference point (S).
2. DEVICE FOR DETERMINING THE SEAT REFERENCE POINT (S)
The device illustrated in Figure 1 consists of a seat pan board and backrest
boards. The lower backrest boards must be hinged in the region of the
ischium humps (A) and the loin (B), the hinge (B) being adjustable in height.
3. METHOD OF DETERMINING THE SEAT REFERENCE POINT (S)
The seat reference point (S) must be obtained by using the device illustrated
in Figures1 and 2, which s imulatesloading by a human occupant. The
device must be positioned on the seat. It must then be loaded with a force
of 550 N at a point 50 mm in front of hinge (A) and two partsof the backres t
lightly pressed tangentially against the padded backrest.
If it is not possible to determine definite tangents to each area of the padded
backrest (below and above the lumbar region) the following procedure must
be adopted:
(a) where there is no possibility of defining the tangent to the lowest
possible area, the lower part of the backrest board in a vertical position
must be lightly pressed against the padded backrest;
(b) where there is no possibility of defining the tangent to the highest
possible area, if the lower part of the backrest board is vertical, the hinge
must be fixed at a height of 230 mm above the seat reference point (S).
The two parts of the backrest board in a vertical position must then be
lightly pressed tangentially against the padded backrest.1978L0764 — EN — 05.07.1999 — 009.001 — 17
