COUNCIL DIRECTIVE
of 4 March 1974
ontheapproximationofthelawsoftheMemberStatesrelatingto
the type-approval of wheeled agricultural to forestry tractors
(74/150/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 ineach Member State tractors must comply with certain
mandatory technical requirements; whereas such requirements differfrom one Member State to another and consequently hinder trade withinthe European Economic Community;
Whereas such hindrances to the establishment and proper functioning of
the commonmarket canbe reduced, an d evenelimin ated, if all MemberStates adopt the same requiremen ts, either inadditionto or inplace oftheir existing laws;
Whereas the requirements of this Directive apply to tractors fitted with
pneumatic types and having a maximum design speed between 6 and 25km/h; whereas these requirements are intended principally to improvesafety onthe road an d at work inso far as the designof these vehiclesis concerned; whereas, on the other hand, other tractors and, in partic-ular, those with a maximum designspeed inexcess of 25 km/h will ifnecessary, be subject to special requirements;
Whereas it is the established practice of the Member States to check
that tractors comply with the relevant technical requirements beforethey are placed onthe market; whereas this check is carried out ontractor types;
Whereas the harmonized technical requirements applicable to individual
tractor parts and characteristics should be specified in special Direct-ives;
Whereas at Community level it is necessary to introduce a Community
type-approval procedure for each tractor type inorder that complian cewith the above requirements can be checked and that each MemberState may recognize checks carried out by other Member States;
Whereas that procedure must enable each Member State to ascertain
whether a tractor type has beensubmitted to the checks laid downbyspecial Directives and listed in a type-approval certificate; whereas thatprocedure must enable manufacturers to complete a certificate ofconformity for all tractors which conform to an approved type; whereasa tractor accompanied by such a certificate must be considered by allMember States as conforming to their own laws; whereas each MemberState should inform the other Member States of its findings by sendinga copy of the type-approval certificate completed for each tractor typewhich has beenapproved;
Whereas, as a transitional measure, it must be possible to grant type-
approval on the basis of Community requirements as and when specialDirectives relating to the various tractor parts or characteristics enter

into force, national requirements remaining applicable in respect of
parts and characteristics still not covered by such Directives;
Whereas, without prejudice to Articles 169 and 170 of the Treaty, it is
advisable withinthe framework of cooperationbetweenthe competen tauthorities of the Member States, to lay downprovision s to help resolvedisputes of a technical nature regarding the conformity of productionmodels to anapproved type;
Whereas a tractor may conform to an approved type but nevertheless
have certainfeatures which are poten tial safety hazards onthe road or atwork; whereas it is therefore advisable to prescribe anappropriateprocedure to preclude such hazards;
Whereas technical progress requires prompt adaption of the technical
requiremen ts specified inthe special Directives; whereas, inorder tofacilitate implementation of the measures required for this purpose, aprocedure should be prescribed for establishing close cooperationbetweenthe Member States an d the Commissionwithinthe Committeeonthe Adaptationto Techn ical Progress of the Directives ontheRemoval of Technical Barriers to Trade in the Agricultural or ForestryTractor Sector,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
