Description / Abstract:
This Recommended Practice defines classes of tractors having
similar characteristics which affect the vibration transmitted to
the operator through the operator seat. This recommended practice
establishes input data parameters for conducting operator seat
vibration tests for various classifications for agricultural
wheeled tractors. The classification is intended to aid in the
selection of a seat for a specific tractor model and to reduce the
amount of testing necessary to determine compliance with applicable
standards and/or recommendations. Classification is based on basic
configuration and total mass. Instrumentation and measurement
procedures are specified in SAE J1013 JAN80. Test procedures are
defined in SAE J1384. This document is in compliance with DIS 5007
adopted by ISO/TC23/SC3 October 1984 in Madrid, Spain.

Superseded by ISO 5007.
