Ariz. Admin. Code § R11-1-603 - Roll-over Protection for Surface Mobile Equipment
A. Self-propelled scrapers, front-end
loaders, dozers, and tractors, manufactured after June 30, 1969, used in
surface mining operations shall be equipped with suitable roll-over protection
structures (ROPS).
B. Each ROPS
shall have the following information permanently affixed to the structure:
1. Manufacturer's or fabricator's name and
address; and
2. ROPS model number,
if any; and
3. Make and model
numbers of the equipment on which the ROPS is designed to fit.
4. For equipment already in use as of
February 4, 1977, a satisfactory substitute for the above-required information
will be a certificate from either the manufacturer of the ROPS or a registered
professional engineer to the effect that the ROPS does meet the performance
standards and is appropriate for the piece of equipment upon which it is
installed.
C. Any
alteration, repair, or welding of the ROPS and ROPS-to-vehicle frame mounts
shall be performed only with prior approval and with instructions from the ROPS
manufacturer or under the instructions of a registered professional engineer;
and the manufacturer, or engineer as the case may be, shall decide what
qualifications the welders involved in this operation must have.
D. Nothing in this rule shall preclude the
issuance of an order because of imminent danger.
E. Fork-lift trucks, front-end loaders, and
dozers shall be provided with substantial canopies when necessary to protect
the operator.
