COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/1789

of 7 September 2016

amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/504 with regard to the administrative requirements for the approval and market surveillance of agricultural and forestry vehicles

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 167/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 February 2013 on the approval and market surveillance of agricultural or forestry vehicles (1), and in particular Article 22(4), Article 25(2) and (3), Article 27(1), Article 33(2), Article 34(3), Article 35(4) and Article 53(8) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/504 (2) lays down, inter alia, the templates for certain documents that are drawn up in the context of the approval and market surveillance of agricultural and forestry vehicles. It is necessary for the purposes of clarity and comprehensiveness that additional information on the maximum towable mass of the rear three-point lifting mechanism be indicated in the information document and in the certificate of conformity.

(2)

In order to better identify a vehicle’s category or subcategory, the maximum and minimum track width of each tyre combination should be stated in the information document.

(3)

In order to increase the consistency and completeness of the information provided, the information

(4)

The certificate of conformity should be simplified in order to reduce the burden on manufacturers.

(5)

The information in the test results sheet related to braking should be extended and improved for the purposes of clarity and consistency.

(6)

In order to provide assistance to the technical services when drawing up braking test reports, specific templates for those test reports should be provided.

(7)

In order to improve the readability and clarity of the text, certain changes should be made to provisions containing contradictions or redundant information and certain references should be amended.

(8)

Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/504 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(9)

In order to allow additional time for manufacturers and national authorities to achieve a timely application of the amendments provided for in this Regulation, this Regulation should enter into force as a matter of urgency, especially taking into account that Regulation (EU) No 167/2013 became applicable on 1 January 2016 and that related administrative requirements will become compulsory with regard to all new vehicles registered or placed on the market as from 1 January 2018.

(10)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the committee referred to in Article 69(1) of Regulation (EU) No 167/2013,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
