(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

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 — 21.12.1982 — 002.001 — 2

mark which consistently fail to conform to the approved type.
That State shall forthwith inform the other Member States and the
Commission of the measures taken, specifying the reasons for its deci-sion.
Article 4
The competent authoritiesof each Member State s hall within one
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.

or less.1978L0764 — EN — 21.12.1982 — 002.001 — 9
▼B
2.5.Seattests
2.5.1. Test to determine the suspension characteristics and the range of
adjustment to the driver's mass
2.5.1.1. The suspension system characteristics are determined by a static
test. This must be carried out with the seat adjusted to accommodate
a driver of a mass of 50 kg and one of a mass of 120 kg.
The limits of the range of adjustment of the seat to the driver's mass
are calculated from the suspension system characteristics.
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. The
depression of the suspension system must be measured with an
accuracy of not less than ± 1 mm. The load must be applied in
accordance with the procedure laid down in section 3 of Appendix
1.1978L0764 — EN — 21.12.1982 — 002.001 — 10
▼B
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 graduationsat which the depres -
sion of the suspension system is measured must not exceed 100 N;
at least eight measurement points must be plotted at approximately
equal intervals in the movement of the suspension system. The point
taken asthe maximum load s hould either be that at which no further
spring depression can be recorded, or a load of 1 500 N. After the
load has been applied or withdrawn, the vertical depression of the
suspension system must be measured 200 mm in front of the seat
reference point (S); after the 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 without fixed weight adjustment limits, the
settings are to be so selected that:
2.5.1.4.1. for the lightest driver, the seat returns to the top of the suspension
travel when the load isremoved; and
2.5.1.4.2. for the heaviest driver, the load of 1 500 N just depresses the seat to
the lowest limit of the suspension travel.
2.5.1.4.3. The range of adjustment thus determined by using the loads
prescribed in 2.5.1.4.1 and 2.5.1.4.2 must be deemed greater than
the range required in 3.1.1.
2.5.1.4.4. If the seat is equipped with a progressive lower spring stop, the
lowest position of the suspension travel (see section 9 of Annex I)
may be defined as the position which the seat assumes under a load
of 1 000 N, in the setting for the lightest driver.
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 values of sections A and B (see Appendix 2)
established in accordance with 2.5.1.6 must be multiplied by 1·3.
2.5.2. Test to determine the lateral stability
2.5.2.1. The seat must be set for the maximum permissible driver's mass and
connected to the test stand or to the tractor in such a way that its
base plate rests on a fixed 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. Test to determine the vibration
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 set values to be used are either those specified in
Appendices 4 and 5 for the class of tractor in question, or the
double-integrated acceleration signals recorded at the seat attach-
ment of a Category B tractor moving at a speed of 12 ± 0·5 km/h
on a standard roadway as defined in 2.5.3.2.1. The vibrations must
be transmitted to a platform which roughly corresponds in its
dimensions to the driver's cab of a tractor. To generate the vibra-
tions, an uninterrupted double run of the set values or the double-
integrated acceleration signals must be used, recorded at the seat1978L0764 — EN — 21.12.1982 — 002.001 — 11
▼B
attachment of a Category B tractor moving on a standard roadway.
The measurements must not be made during the first run of the set
valuesor of the acceleration s ignal.
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 a
vibrating arm, the dimension R must be at least 2 000 mm (see
Appendix 6).
The test stand must be capable of simulating sinusoidal vibrations,
as shown in Appendix 7, when a mass of 150 kg is applied.
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. The surface may be cast in smoothly
surfaced concrete, or it may be formed of wood or concrete blocks
set in a basic structure. The surface of each track strip is defined by
the ordinates of elevation in relation to a base line; these ordinates
are shown in the tables in Appendix 3. With regard to the roadway,
the elevation isdefined at 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 must be 100 m. The measure-
ments 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 as
the axisof the front axle of the tractor isperpendicular to point
D = 100 of the test roadway (see table in Appendix 3 to Annex II).
2.5.3.2.2. The vertical vibrations transmitted are determined 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 reference
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

error of ± 3·5 % in a frequency range of 1 to 80 Hz, including
change of tape speed during replay for analysis.
2.5.3.3.5. Vibration meter
2.5.3.3.5.1. Vibrationsof more than 10 Hz may be dis regarded. It istherefore
permissible to connect upstream of the measuring instrument a
low-pass filter with a cut-out frequency of about 10 Hz and an
attenuation of 12 dB per octave.
2.5.3.3.5.2. This instrument must incorporate an electronic weighting filter
between the sensor and the integrator device. The filter must corre-
spond to the curve shown in Appendix 8 and the margin of error
must be ± 0·5 dB in the 2 to 4 Hz frequency band and ± 2 dB for
the other frequencies.
2.5.3.3.5.3. The electronic measuring device must be capable of indicating
either:
— the integral (I) of the square of the weighted vibration accelera-
tion (aw) for a test time (T)
I¼ZT
oawðÞ2dt
— or the square root of that integral
— or directly the r.m.s. value of the weighted vibration acceleration

The overall inaccuracy in the r.m.s. value of the weighted accelera-
tion calculated in thisway mus t be within ± 5 %.
2.5.3.3.6. Calibration
All instruments must be regularly calibrated.
2.5.3.3.7. Evaluation of vibration tests
2.5.3.3.7.1. During each test, the weighted vibration acceleration for the whole
test time must be determined with the direct-reading vibration meter
specified in 2.5.3.3.5.
2.5.3.3.7.2. The report must give the arithmetic mean value of the corrected seat
vibration acceleration for the light driver and also the arithmetic
mean value of the corrected seat vibration acceleration for the heavy
driver. The test report must also contain the ratio of the weighted
vibration acceleration on the driver's seat to that measured at the
seat attachment. This ratio shall be given to two decimal places.1978L0764 — EN — 21.12.1982 — 002.001 — 13

2.5.3.3.7.3. The range of ambient temperature during the tests must be
measured and shown in the report.
2.5.4. Vibration tests to be carried out on tractor seats depending on 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
for the type of tractor for which the test seat is intended.
2.5.5. Procedure used for determining the seat vibration on seats intended
for Category A tractors
2.5.5.1. The vibration behaviour of the reference tractor, which isthe
critical factor in the test on the driver's seat, is defined by the spec-
tral power density of the vertical acceleration (Appendices 9 and
10) recorded at the seat attachment of the reference tractor during
a run on the standard roadway in accordance with the requirements
of 2.5.3.2.
2.5.5.2. The value awBactually present at the seat attachment during the
measurement run must be within the following ranges:
Class I reference tractors:
awB= 1·9 to 2·2 m/s2
Class II reference tractors:
awB= 1·6 to 1·8 m/s2
and must be corrected to meet the reference value of:
aw/C3B¼2/C105 m =s2for class I
aw/C3B¼1/C17m =s2for class II,
the acceleration of awsmeasured on the driver's seat being corrected
in accordance with the relation:
aw/C3s¼awsaw/C3B
awB
2.5.5.3. In the case of the test carried out on the stand, the set value signals
for the generation of the vertical movement of the seat attachment
must have been determined by double integration of the acceleration
signals recorded at the seat attachment of the Class I or II reference
tractors being tested during a run on the standard roadway. These
set value signals are given in Appendices 4 and 5.
The test stand must be so adjusted that the seat attachment is
subjected to a weighted acceleration of:
awB= 1·9 to 2·2 m/s2
for Category A tractorsin Clas sI, and
awB= 1·6 to 1·8 m/s2
for Category A tractorsin Clas sII.The value a
wBactually present at the seat attachment during
measurement must be determined. In case of deviation from the
reference value of:
aw/C3B¼2/C105 m =s2for Category A tractorsin Clas sI
aw/C3B¼1/C17m =s2for Category A tractorsin Clas sII,
the acceleration of awsmeasured at the driver's seat being corrected
in accordance with the following equation:1978L0764 — EN — 21.12.1982 — 002.001 — 14
▼B
aw/C3s¼awsaw/C3B
awB
2.5.5.4. For the test on the stand, the requirements of 2.5.3.1 apply, and the
vibration must be generated in accordance with the requirements of
2.5.5.2.
For each of the two driversreferred to in 2.5.3.3.1, the weighted
vibration acceleration must be measured at the seat over a period
of 28 seconds. The measurement must begin at the set value signal
corresponding to t = 0 seconds and end at the set value signal t = 28
seconds (see Appendices 4 and 5 to Annex II). At least two test
runs must be carried out. The measured values must not deviate
from the arithmetic mean by more than ± 5 %.
2.5.6. Procedure used for determining the seat vibration on seats intended
for Category B tractors
2.5.6.1. In accordance with the requirementsof 2.5.4.2, the s eat vibration
tests are not applicable to a group or 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 2.5.3.2 and 2.5.3.3. In thiscas e, the vibration
acceleration measured on the driver's seat (aws) need not be
corrected and isaccordingly identical to the reference value a w/C3s:
2.5.6.3. The testing on the test stand must be carried out in association with
a standard roadway test in accordance with the requirements of
2.5.3.1 and 2.5.3.3.
The set values for the vibration rig drive unit must be determined
by double integration of the vibratory movement acceleration signal
recorded in accordance with 2.5.3.1.1.
2.5.6.4. In the determination of the set values obtained in accordance with
2.5.6.3, the weighted vibration acceleration (awp) recorded on the
test stand at the seat attachment must not deviate by more
than ± 10 % from the value (awF) recorded on the standard roadway
in accordance with the requirementsof 2.5.6.3 (firs t paragraph). In
the event of deviation from 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 :
aw/C3s¼awsawF
awp
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 %.

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 — 21.12.1982 — 002.001 — 17

Appendix 4
Set-value signals for the test-stand testing of driver's seats for Category A
tractors inClassI(2.5.3.1.1)
PS = set point
a = amplitude of the required value signal in 10−4m,
t = measurement time in seconds
These signals are shown in the table for 701 required points.They can be stored numerically and, after passing through a low-pass filter with
a cut-off frequency of about 10 Hz and high-frequency attenuation of 12 dB/octave, they show the amplitude of the set value for the electro-hydraulically
controlled test stand. The set-value signals must be repeated without interrup-
tion.

AtractorsinClassII(2.5.3.1.1)
PS = set point
a = amplitude of the required value signal in 10−4m
t = measurement time in seconds
These signals are shown in the table for 701 set points.They can be stored numerically and, after passing through a low-pass filter with
a cut-off frequency of abour 10 Hz and high-frequency attenuation of 12 dB/octave, they show the amplitude of the set value for the electro-hydraulically
controlled test stand. The set-value signals must be repeated without interrup-
tion.

The spectral power density of the vertical vibration acceleration at the seat
attachment of the Class I reference tractor can be approximately expressed by
the following relation:
Φ¼Φmaxexp/C0f/C0fm ðÞ2

where the constants have the values:
Φmax= 6·0 (m/s2)2/Hz
fm= 3·25 Hz
b = 0·33 Hz
The permitted tolerancesare:

The tolerance with respect to b is determined by the fact that, in accordance
with 2.5.5.2, the weighted vibration acceleration at the seat attachment must be
within the limits:

DRIVER'S SEAT INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS FOR EEC TYPE-
APPROVALOFATRACTOR
1. Every driver's seat must bear the EEC component type-approval mark and
comply with the following installation requirements:
1.1. the driver's seat must be installed in such a way that:1.1.1. the driver is assured of a comfortable position for driving and
manoeuvring the tractor;
1.1.2. the seat is easily accessible;1.1.3. the driver, when seated in the normal driving position, can easily reach
the variouscontrolsof the tractor that are likely to be actuated during
operation;
1.1.4. no part of any of the seat or tractor components is likely to cause the
driver to suffer cuts or bruises;
1.1.5. where the seat is adjustable only in length or height, its plane of
symmetry must coincide or be parallel with the median longitudinal plane
of the tractor;
1.1.6. where the seat is designed to revolve round a vertical axis it must be
capable of being locked in all or certain positions and in any case in the
position mentioned in 1.1.5.
2. The holder of the EEC type-approval may request that it be extended to
other types of seat. The competent authorities must grant this extension
on the following conditions:
2.1. the new type of seat has received EEC component type-approval;
2.2. it has been designed to be installed on the type of tractor for which the
extension of the EEC type-approval has been requested;
2.3. it is installed in such a manner as to comply with the installation require-
mentsin thisAnnex.
3. Seatsintended for tractorswith a rear wheel track of 1 150 mm may have
the following minimum dimensions with respect to the depth and width
of the seat surface:
— depth of seat surface: 300 mm,
— width of seat surface: 400 mm.
This provision is applicable only if the values specified for the depth and
the width of the seat surface (i.e. 400 ± 50 mm and at least 450 mm
respectively) cannot be observed on grounds relating to the construction
of the tractor.
4. A certificate conforming to the model shown in Annex V is to be
attached to the EEC type-approval certificate for each type-approval or
extension of type-approval granted or refused.1978L0764 — EN — 21.12.1982 — 002.001 — 60
