Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).

1 Scope

This document establishes the vocabulary of accessories and components of industrial trucks (hereafter referred to as trucks) as defined in ISO 5053‑1.

For the purposes of this document, the terms accessories and components are describing parts and assemblies which are, or can be, fitted to a truck.

Accessories and components of typical trucks are given in Annex A.

Due to the variance of the individual truck types and the ongoing development of new combinations, it is not possible to include all the different variations of accessories and components. Therefore, this document defines, shows and/or describes the typical variances.
