COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2015/504

of 11 March 2015

implementing Regulation (EU) No 167/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council 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 24(4), Article 25(2), (3), and (6), Article 27(1), Article 33(2), Article 34(3), Article 35(4), Article 45(2), Article 46(3) and Article 53(8) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

This Regulation sets out the detailed administrative requirements regarding the templates for the information folder and for the information document; the template for the certificate on access to vehicle on-board diagnostics and on access to repair and maintenance information; the templates for the certificate of conformity; the models for the manufacturer's statutory plate and the models for the EU type-approval mark; the templates for the EU type-approval certificate and the template for the list of applicable requirements or acts appended to the EU type-approval certificate; the numbering system of EU type-approval certificates; the template for the test results sheet appended to the EU type-approval certificate; the general requirements for the format of test reports; the list of parts and equipment that may pose a serious risk to the correct functioning of essential systems; all aspects related to the procedure of authorisation for placing on the market and entry into service of parts or equipment that may pose a serious risk to the correct functioning of essential systems as well as the template for the certificate for placing on the market and entry into service of parts or equipment that may pose a serious risk to the correct functioning of essential systems; the numbering system of certificates for placing on the market and entry into service of parts or equipment that may pose a serious risk to the correct functioning of essential systems.

(3)

(4)

To indicate which procedure has been chosen by the manufacturer when applying for type-approval, a new template for an ‘information folder sheet’ should be introduced.

 

(5)

In order to ensure reasonable access for independent operators to vehicle repair information, including information relating to on-board diagnostic systems and their interaction with other vehicle systems, manufacturers must provide non-discriminatory access to that information and submit proof of their compliance with that requirement to the approval authorities. A template for a corresponding manufacturer's certificate constituting such proof should be laid down.
