Ta evropski standard določa tehnične zahteve za zmanjšanje nevarnosti, navedenih v točki 4, do katerih lahko pride pri postopkih usposabljanja za zagon, upravljanja in vzdrževanja tračnih transporterjev v okviru predvidene uporabe, vključno s pričakovano nepravilno uporabo, ki jo smiselno predvidi proizvajalec, ko jih v skladu s specifikacijami izvaja proizvajalec ali njegov zakoniti zastopnik. Upošteva tudi nekatere zahteve, ki jih organi, proizvajalci letal in podporne opreme na tleh ter letalske družbe in agencije za oskrbo letal obravnavajo kot bistvene.
Ta evropski standard se uporablja za:
a) samohodne tračne transporterje s prostorom za voznika ali brez njega,
b) samohodne tračne transporterje, opremljene s poltovorno karoserijo,
c) vlečne tračne transporterje,
