COMMON POSITION (EC) No 5/2000

adopted by the Council on 22 November 1999

with a view to adopting Directive 2000/.../EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of ...
on action to be taken against the emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants by engines
intended to power agricultural or forestry tractors and amending Council Directive 74/150/EEC

(2000/C 17/03)

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE
EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Com-
munity, and in particular Article 95 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social
Committee (2),

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in
Article 251 of the Treaty (3),

Whereas:

(1) To ensure the proper functioning of the internal market,
Council Directive 74/150/EEC of 4 March 1974 on the
approximation of the laws of the Member States relating
to the type-approval of wheeled agricultural or forestry
tractors (4) and the 22 specific Directives adopted between
1974 and 1989 harmonised the technical specifications
in this field;

(2)

In order to further safeguard the environment,
it is
necessary to supplement the measures already adopted
by Council Directive 77/537/EEC of 28 June 1977 on the
approximation of the laws of the Member States relating
to the measures to be taken against the emission of
pollutants from diesel engines for use in wheeled agricul-
tural or forestry tractors (5) (opacity of exhaust gases) with
other measures relating, in particular, to physicochemical
emissions; by referring to the provisions of Directive
97/68/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council
of 16 December 1997 on the approximation of the laws

of the Member States relating to measures against the
emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants from
internal combustion engines to be installed in non-road
mobile machinery (6), this Directive lays down the limit
values for emissions of gaseous and particulate pollutants
to be applied in successive stages, and the test procedure
for internal combustion engines intended to power
agricultural or forestry tractors; compliance with the
provisions of Council Directive 88/77/EEC of 3 Decem-
ber 1987 on the approximation of the laws of the
Member States relating to the measures to be taken
against the emission of gaseous pollutants from diesel
engines for use in vehicles (7), can also be accepted as
compliance with the requirements of this Directive;

In order to facilitate access to third-country markets, it is
necessary to establish equivalence between the require-
ments of
this Directive for the first stage and the
requirements laid down in United Nations Economic
Commission for Europe (UN/ECE) Regulation No 96
concerning the component type-approval of compression
ignition engines intended to be fitted to agricultural or
forestry tractors in terms of their pollutant emissions;

it

the market,

In order to maximise the benefits for the European
environment and, at the same time, to ensure the unity
is necessary to adopt very strict
of
mandatory standards at regular intervals; any further
reduction in the limit values and any changes to the test
procedure can be adopted only on the basis of studies
and research to be conducted into existing and foreseeable
technological potential and into the cost effectiveness
thereof, in order to allow production on an industrial
scale of agricultural or forestry tractors that are capable
of meeting these more stringent limits;

(5) Technical progress requires rapid adaptation of

the
technical requirements set out in the Annexes to this
the Commission is committed to aligning
Directive;
without delay the limit values and dates in this Directive
to future changes in Directive 97/68/EC; in every case
where the European Parliament and the Council empower
the Commission to implement the rules drawn up for
agricultural or forestry tractors, a prior consultation
procedure involving the Commission and the Member
States meeting in committee should be introduced;

— ‘type-approval of a tractor type in respect of pollutant
emissions’ means the instrument whereby a Member State
certifies that a tractor type equipped with an engine meets
the technical requirements of this Directive,

— ‘family of engines’ means two or more types of engine that
are similar in design and which, therefore, could display
characteristics that are comparable in terms of pollutant
emission.

(6) The requirements of this Directive supplement those of
Directive 77/537/EEC, which is referred to in item
2.8.1 of Annex II to Directive 74/150/EEC; Directive
74/150/EEC thus needs to be amended in order to add a
new item 2.8.2 in Annex II covering the topic dealt with
by this Directive in conjunction with the reference SD
(Specific Directive);

(7) The objective of reducing the level of pollutant emissions
from agricultural or forestry tractors and the smooth
functioning of the internal market for such vehicles
cannot be sufficiently achieved by individual Member
States and can therefore be better achieved by the
approximation of the laws of the Member States relating
to measures to be taken against air pollution by such
vehicles; the measures contained in this Directive do not
go beyond what is necessary to achieve the objectives of
the Treaty.

ENGINE FAMILY

8.1.

Parameters defining the engine family

The engine family may be defined by basic design parameters which must be common to all engines
within the family. In some cases there may be interaction of parameters. These effects must also be
taken into consideration in order to ensure that only engines with similar exhaust-emission
characteristics are included within an engine family.

For engines to be considered to belong to the same engine family, the following list of basic parameters
must be common.

8.1.1.

Combustion cycle: 2 stroke/4 stroke (1)

8.1.2.

Cooling medium: air/water/oil (1)

8.1.3.

Individual cylinder displacement

— engines to be within a total spread of 15 %

— number of cylinders for engines with after-treatment device

8.1.4.

Method of air aspiration: naturally aspirated/pressure charged (1)

8.1.5.

Combustion chamber type/design

— pre-chamber

— swirl chamber

— open chamber

8.1.6.

Valve and porting — configuration, size and number

— cylinder head

— cylinder wall

— crankcase

8.1.7.

Fuel system

— pump-line-injector

— in-line pump

Choice of parent engine

8.2.1.

The parent engine of the family shall be selected using the primary criterion of the highest fuel delivery
per stroke at the declared maximum torque speed. If two or more engines share this primary criterion,
the parent engine shall be selected using the secondary criterion of highest fuel delivery per stroke at
rated speed. Under certain circumstances, the approval authority may conclude that the worst-case
emission rate of the family can best be characterised by testing a second engine. Thus, the approval
authority may select an additional engine for tests based on features which indicate that it may have
the highest emission levels of the engines within that family.

8.2.2.

If engines within the family incorporate other variable features which could be considered to affect
exhaust emissions, these features must also be identified and taken into account in the selection of the
parent engine.

6.

Any engine approved as a separate technical unit must bear:

the trade mark or trade name of the engine’s manufacturer;

the engine type, and if applicable engine family, and a unique engine identification number;

the EC type-approval mark in accordance with Appendix 5 of this Annex.

These marks must last throughout the useful life of the engine and remain clearly legible and indelible.
If labels or plates are used, they must be affixed in such a way that they too last throughout the useful
life of the engine, and the labels/plates cannot be removed without destroying or defacing them.

The marks must be secured to an engine part that is necessary for normal engine operation and not
normally requiring replacement during engine life.

These marks must be located so as to be readily visible to the average person once the engine has been
fitted to the tractor, together with all the accessories needed for engine operation. If a bonnet is to be
removed in order to make the mark visible, this requirement shall be considered to have been met if
removal of that bonnet is simple and does not require the use of a tool.

In case of doubt concerning the meeting of this requirement, it shall be considered to have been met if
an additional mark containing at least the engine identification number and the name, trade name or
logo of the manufacturer has been added.

That additional mark shall be affixed to, or next to, a major component that would not normally have
to be replaced during the service life of the engine, and be easily accessible, without the assistance of
tools, during routine maintenance operations; otherwise, it must be located at a distance from the
original mark on the engine crankcase. The original mark and, where appropriate, the additional mark
shall both be clearly visible once all of the accessories needed for the operation of the engine have been
fitted. A bonnet meeting the requirements set out in the above paragraph shall be authorised. The
additional mark shall be affixed in a durable manner preferably directly to the topside of the engine, for
example by means of an engraving, or a sticker or plate that meets the requirements of item 2.

The engines must be classified by means of their identification numbers in such a way that the
production sequence can be determinated unambiguously.

Before leaving the production line, the engines must bear all of the required marks.

The exact location of the engine marks shall be declared in the information document, in accordance
with Annexes I and II.

STATEMENT OF THE COUNCIL’S REASONS

I.

INTRODUCTION

1. On 7 September 1998, the Commission submitted a proposal, based on Article 95 (formerly
Article 100a) of the EC Treaty, amending Directive 74/150/EEC on the approximation of the laws
of the Member States relating to measures to be taken against the emission of gaseous and
particulate pollutants by engines intended to power agricultural or forestry tractors.

2. The European Parliament delivered its opinion on 5 May 1999 and proposed four amendments
to the Commission proposal. In the light of that opinion the Commission submitted an amended
proposal on 18 August 1999, incorporating two of the European Parliament’s amendments.

3. The Economic and Social Committee delivered its opinion on 29 January 1999.

4. On 22 November 1999, the Council adopted a common position on the Commission proposal

in accordance with Article 251 of the Treaty.

II. OBJECTIVE

5. The objective of the Commission’s proposal is to introduce emissions-control legislation on
agricultural and forestry tractors analogous to that laid down for off-road mobile machinery in
Directive 97/68/EC so as to ensure an equivalent level of environmental protection. The proposal
covers those requirements which, in particular, concern the component type-approval procedures
applying to engines intended to be fitted to tractors and thus also to the definition of the
type-approval procedures for such vehicles in terms of their pollutant emissions. Furthermore,
the Directive applies the same test requirements as the ones that have been adopted for off-road
mobile machinery and the emission limit values are also the same.

III. ANALYSIS OF THE COMMON POSITION

6. Preliminary comment

In establishing a common position, the Council has slightly modified the original Commission
proposal seeking to make it clearer and changing certain deadlines,
in particular as far as
application dates are concerned (Article 4).

7. Enacting terms

(a) Recitals

Recital 5 of the original Commission proposal has been deleted as a result of the deletion of
Article 7 on tax incentives.

(b) Article 4

Article 4 has been completely redrafted as the Council considered that the original proposal
on the timetable was not clear enough. Thus, precise dates for all categories of engines have
been introduced in order to render the Directive more readable and to allow for more
flexibility for manufacturers.

(c) Previous Article 7

The Council has decided to delete the original Article 7 on tax incentives as it seems unjustified
to legislate on this in the field of agricultural tractors. Furthermore, the Council has found it
best to follow Directive 97/68/EC which does not contain any provision on tax incentives.

(d) Articles 3, 5 and 6

The drafting of Articles 3, 5 and 6 differs slightly from the original Commission proposal as
the Council found that the previous text lacked clarity.

(e) Annex III

In order to group the equivalencies with other EC regulations referred to in the Commission
proposal, the Council has found it useful to add new Annex III on the recognition of
alternative type-approvals.
