Scope

This Part of GB/T 17888 gives general requirements for access to stationary machines and
guidance about the correct choice of means of access, when necessary, access to the stationary
machine is not possible directly from the ground level or from a floor.
This Part is applicable to permanent means of access which are a part of a stationary machine,
and also to non-powered adjustable parts (e.g., foldable, slidable) and movable parts of fixed
means of access.
NOTE 1: “Fixed” means of access are those mounted in such a manner (for example, by screws, nuts,
welding) that they can only be removed by the use of tools.
This Part specifies minimum requirements that also apply when the same means of access is
required as the part of the building or civil construction (e.g., working platforms, walkways,
ladders) where the machine is installed, on condition that the main function of that part of the
construction is to provide a means of access to the machine.
NOTE 2: Where no local regulation or standards exist, this part of ISO 14122 can be used for means of
access which are outside the scope of the standard.
It is intended that this Part of GB/T 17888 be used with a relevant access-specific part of GB/T
17888.
The GB/T 17888 series as a whole is applicable to both stationary and mobile machinery where
fixed means of access are necessary. It is not applicable to powered means of access such as
lifts, escalators, or other devices specially designed to lift persons between two levels.
For the significant hazards covered by this Part, see Clause 4.

Summary	This standard specifies the general requirements for access to stationary machinery, and specifies guidelines on how to properly choose access facilities when access to stationary machinery is required but the machine cannot be directly approached from the ground, floor or platform. This standard applies to permanent access facilities that are a component of fixed machinery, as well as to adjustable parts (such as foldable and slidable) and movable parts that are not powered by fixed access facilities. The minimum requirements specified in this standard also apply to similar access facilities (such as working platforms, passages, and vertical ladders) on the building where the machine is installed, provided that the main function of such facilities is for access to the machine. This standard is used with other parts of GB/T 17888. GB/T 17888 is applicable to fixed type with fixed access facility
