Scope
This document specifies safety requirements for design of tail lifts as defined in 3.1 for mounting on wheeled goods vehicles. It also specifies the verification of such tail lifts and the safety information that has to be provided for their use.

- rotary type with a maximum lifting height not exceeding 2 m;
- used as a link bridge when intended by the manufacturer.
NOTE A tail lift is not to be confused with a link bridge attached to a loading dock which is included within the definition of a dock leveller and is outside the scope of this document.
Loading and/or unloading operations include the use of a tail lift to lift and/or lower loads.

- overloading at vehicle floor level;
- drive system with lead screw and nuts;
