(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 ofthe European Parliament (1);
Having regard to the Opinion ofthe Economic and Social Committee (2);
Whereas in each 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 common market can be reduced, and even eliminated, ifall Member
States adopt the same requirements, either in addition to or in place oftheir existing laws;
Whereas the requirements ofthis Directive apply to tractors f itted with
pneumatic types and having a maximum design speed between 6 and 25
km/h; whereas these requirements are intended principally to improvesafety on the road and at work in so far as the design of these vehicles isconcerned; whereas, on the other hand, other tractors and, in particular,those with a maximum design speed in excess of25 km/h will if
necessary, be subject to special requirements;
Whereas it is the established practice ofthe Member States to check that
tractors comply with the relevant technical requirements before they areplaced on the market; whereas this check is carried out on tractor types;
Whereas the harmonized technical requirements applicable to individual
tractor parts and characteristics should be specified in special Directives;
Whereas at Community level it is necessary to introduce a Community
type-approval procedure for each tractor type in order that compliance
with the above requirements can be checked and that each Member Statemay recognize checks carried out by other Member States;
Whereas that procedure must enable each Member State to ascertain
whether a tractor type has been submitted to the checks laid down by
special 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 Member
State should inform the other Member States of its findings by sending a
copy of the type-approval certificate completed for each tractor typewhich has been approved;
Whereas, as a transitional measure, it must be possible to grant type-
approval on the basis ofCommunity requirements as and when special
Directives relating to the various tractor parts or characteristics enterinto force, national requirements remaining applicable in respect of partsand characteristics still not covered by such Directives;
Whereas, without prejudice to Articles 169 and 170 ofthe Treaty, it is
advisable within the framework of cooperation between the competentauthorities ofthe Member States, to lay down provisions to help resolve1974L0150 — EN — 06.05.1988 — 005.001 — 2

(2) OJ No C 48, 16. 4. 1969, p. 17.
▼B
disputes ofa technical nature regarding the conf ormity ofproduction
models to an approved type;
Whereas a tractor may conform to an approved type but nevertheless
have certain features which are potential safety hazards on the road or at
work; whereas it is therefore advisable to prescribe an appropriateprocedure to preclude such hazards;
Whereas technical progress requires prompt adaption ofthe technical
requirements specified in the special Directives; whereas, in order tofacilitate implementation of the measures required for this purpose, a
procedure should be prescribed for establishing close cooperation
between the Member States and the Commission within the Committeeon the Adaptation to Technical Progress ofthe Directives on theRemoval ofTechnical Barriers to Trade in the Agricultural or ForestryTractor Sector,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
CHAPTER I
Definitions
Article 1
1. ‘Agricultural or forestry tractor’ means any motor vehicle, fitted
with wheels or ►C1endless tracks ◄, having at least two axles, the
main function of which lies in its tractive power and which is specially

intended for agricultural or forestry use. It may be equipped to carry aload and passengers.
2. This Directive shall apply only to tractors defined in paragraph I
which are equipped with pneumatic tyres and have at least two axles and
a maximum design speed ofbetween 6 and 30 km/h.
Article 2
For the purposes ofthis Directive:
(a) ‘national type-approval’ means the administrative procedure known
as:
— ‘agréation par type’ and ‘aanneming’ in Belgian law;
— ‘standardtypegodkendelse’ in Danish law;— ‘allgemeine Betriebserlaubnis’ in German law;— ‘réception par type’ in French law;— ‘type-approval’ in Irish law;— ‘omologazione’ or ‘approvazione del tipo’ in Italian law;

CHAPTER II
EECtractortype-approval
Article 3
Application for EEC type-approval shall be submitted by the
manufacturer or his authorized representative to a Member State. An
application shall be accompanied by an information document, themodel ofwhich is given in Annex I, and by the documents ref erred totherein. No application in respect ofany one type oftractor may besubmitted to more than one Member State.
Article 4
1. A Member State shall approve all tractor types which satisfy the
following conditions:
(a) the tractor type must conform to the particulars in the information
document;
(b) the tractor type must satisfy the checks listed in the model, referred
to in Article 2 (b), ofthe type-approval certif icate.
2. The Member State which has granted type-approval shall take the
necessary measures to verify, in so far as is necessary, and if need be in
cooperation with the competent authorities ofthe other Member States,
that production models conform to the approved prototype. Suchverification shall be limited to spot checks.
The Member State shall complete all the sections ofa type-approval
certificate for each tractor type which it approves.
Article 5
1. The competent authorities ofeach Member State shall send within
one month to the competent authorities ofthe other Member States a
copy of the information document and approval certificate for eachtractor type which they approve or refuse to approve.
2. The manufacturer or his authorized representative in the country of
registration shall complete a certificate of conformity, the model of
which is given in Annex III, for each tractor manufactured in conformitywith the approved prototype.
3. Member States may, however, for purposes of tractor taxation or
completion ofits registration documents, ask f or particulars not
mentioned in Annex III to be given on the certificate of conformity,provided that such particulars are explicitly stated on the informationdocument or can be derived therefrom by a straight-forward calculation.
Article 6
1. The Member State which has granted EEC type-approval must
take the necessary measures to ensure that it is informed of any cessationofproduction and ofany change in particulars appearing in theinformation document.
2. Ifthe State in question considers that such a change does not
require an amendment to the existing type-approval certificate, orcompletion ofa new type-approval certif icate, the competent authoritiesof that State shall inform the manufacturer thereof and shall send to the
competent authorities ofthe other Member States, in periodic consign-
ments, copies ofamendments to inf ormation documents which havealready been distributed.
3. If the State in question finds that an amendment to an information
document warrants fresh checks or fresh tests and that it is accordingly
necessary to amend the existing type-approval certificate or complete a
new type-approval certificate, the competent authorities of that Stateshall inform the manufacturer thereof and shall, within one month ofsuch new documents being completed, send them to the competentauthorities ofthe other Member States.1974L0150 — EN — 06.05.1988 — 005.001 — 4
▼B
4. Where a type-approval certificate is amended or replaced or
production ofthe approved tractor type ceases, the competent authoritiesofthe Member State which granted that type-approval shall, within one
month, communicate to the competent authorities ofthe other Member
States the serial numbers ofthe last tractor produced in conf ormity withthe old certificate and, where applicable, the serial numbers of the firsttractor produced in conformity with the new or amended certificate.
Article 7
1. No Member State may refuse the registration or may prohibit the
sale, entry into service or use ofany new tractor on grounds relating toits construction or operation where that tractor is accompanied by a
certificate of conformity.
2. Nevertheless, this certificate shall not prevent a Member State
from taking such measures in respect of tractors which do not conform
to the approved prototype.
Failure to conform to the approved prototype shall be established where
deviations from the particulars in the information document are found toexist and where these deviations have not been authorized under Article
6 (2) or (3) by the Member State which granted the type-approval. A
tractor shall not be considered to deviate from the approved type wheretolerances are permitted by special Directives and these tolerances arerespected.
Article 8
1. Ifthe Member State which has granted EEC type-approval f inds
that a number oftractors accompanied by a certif icate ofconf ormity to aparticular type do not conform to the type which it has approved, it shall
take the necessary measures to ensure that production models conform
to the approved type. The competent authorities ofthat State shall advisethose ofthe other Member States ofthe measures taken, which may,where necessary, extend to withdrawal ofEEC type-approval. The saidauthorities shall take like measures ifthey are inf ormed by thecompetent authorities ofanother Member State ofsuch f ailure to
conform.
2. The competent authorities ofthe Member States shall inf orm one
another, within one month, ofany withdrawal ofEEC type-approval,and ofthe reasons f or such a measure.
3. Ifthe Member State which has granted EEC type-approval
disputes the failure to conform notified to it, the Member Statesconcerned shall endeavour to settle the dispute.
The Commission shall be kept informed and shall, where necessary,
hold appropriate consultations for the purpose of reaching a settlement.
Article 9
1. Ifa Member State f inds that tractors ofa particular type may be a
hazard to safety on the road or at work, even though they areaccompanied by a properly issued certificate of conformity, then thatState may, for a maximum period of six months, refuse to register new
tractors ofthat type or prohibit their sale, entry into service or use in its
territory. It shall forthwith inform the other Member States and theCommission thereof, stating the reasons for its decision.
2. The Commission shall within six weeks consult the Member States
concerned. It shall deliver an opinion without delay and take appropriatesteps. Where the Commission considers that an amendment as envisagedin Article 11 is necessary, the period oftime laid down in paragraph 1 ofthis Article shall be extended until the procedure set out in Article 13has been completed.1974L0150 — EN — 06.05.1988 — 005.001 — 5
▼M1
Article 9a
1. Where the separate Directives make express provision for so
doing, EEC type-approval may also be granted for types of systems orparts oftractors which f orm a separate technical unit.
2. Where the separate technical unit to be approved fulfils its function
or offers a specific feature only in conjunction with other components ofthe tractor and for this reason compliance with one or more requirementscan be verified only when the separate technical unit to be approvedoperates in conjunction with other tractor components, whether real or
simulated, the scope ofthe EEC type-approval ofthe separate technical
unit must be restricted accordingly. The EEC type-approval certificatefor a separate technical unit shall then include any restrictions on its useand shall indicate any conditions for fitting it. Observance of theserestrictions and conditions shall be verified at the time of EEC type-approval ofthe tractor.
3. Articles 3 to 9 and 14 shall apply by analogy.However, the holder ofthe EEC type-approval f or a separate technical
unit granted in accordance with this Article shall be obliged not only tocomplete the certificate provided for in Article 5 (2), but also to affix toeach unit manufactured in conformity with the approved type the tradename or mark, the type and, ifthe separate Directive so provides, thetype-approval number.
CHAPTER III
Transitionalprovisions
Article 10
1. Once this Directive has entered into force and as the special
Directives necessary for the granting of EEC type-approval become
applicable:
— in Member States where tractors or a category oftractor are subject
to national type-approval, such national type-approval shall be basedon the harmonized technical requirements instead ofon thecorresponding national requirements ifthe applicant so requests;
— in Member States where tractors or a category oftractor are not
subject to national type-approval, the sale, registration, entry intoservice or use ofsuch tractors may not be ref used or prohibited onthe grounds that they comply with the harmonized technicalrequirements instead ofthe corresponding national requirements
provided that the manufacturer or his authorized representative
informs the competent authorities of those States that they do socomply;
— on application by a manufacturer or his authorized representative and
on submission of the information document referred to in Article 3,
the Member State concerned shall complete the sections ofthe type-
approval certificate referred to in Article 2 (b). A copy of thiscertificate shall be issued to the applicant. Other Member States shallaccept this document as proofthat the requisite checks have beencarried out on the same type oftractor.
2. The provisions ofparagraph 1 ofthis Article shall be repealed once
all the requirements necessary for the granting of EEC type-approval areapplicable.
