Required safety features: 1. Front Lock: Separate locking system at front of attachment 2. Safety Springs: Maintain lock position if hydraulic pressure lost 3. Visual Indicator: Clearly shows locked/unlocked status from operator position 4. Connection Test: Procedure to verify full engagement before lifting
Testing requirements:
- Static strength tests
- Dynamic fatigue tests
- Lock mechanism reliability
- Environmental testing (temperature, dust)
Compliance importance:
- Legal requirement in EU for quick coupler sales
- Major contractors mandate ISO 13031 for site access
- Insurance coverage may depend on compliant equipment
