J3078/4 specifies a uniform test method for measuring the contribution to operator environmental temperature provided by a heating, ventilating and air conditioning system operating in a specific ambient environment. The method might not determine the complete climatic environment of the operator since this is also affected by heat load from sources other than those on the machine, for example solar heating. J3708/6 is to be used in conjunction with J3078/4 to determine more accurately the complete heat loading on the operator enclosure. Minimum performance levels for the machine’s operator enclosure heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems are established in J3708/4.
This SAE Standard applies to the usage of tires of the same nominal size and tread type, but with different outside diameter for articulated front-end loaders. Articulated four-wheel-drive front-end loader performance and component life can be affected by excessive differences in the tire outside circumference and/or diameter. The purpose is to provide specific guidelines for the usage of tires with different outside circumference and/or diameter on articulated front-end loaders.

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended to serve as a reference for the amount of torque that a Power Take-Off can induce on the transmission mounting pad. This document will apply to six-bolt, eight-bolt, and rear mounted power take-offs.
This SAE J2971 Recommended Practice Truck and Bus Aerodynamic Device Terminology document describes a standard naming convention of aerodynamic devices and technologies used to control aerodynamic forces on truck and buses weighing more than 10,000 pounds (including trailers).
This document presents a catalog of safety sign text and artwork that can be used by any ready mixed concrete truck manufacturer to warn of common hazards.
This SAE Standard describes methods for evaluating the performance of the systems detection device, the minimum detection areas behind the machine, the visual and audible information presented to the operator and ground personnel, and the systems fault detection requirements. Also included are operator system function tests and maintenance procedures. The purpose of this document is to establish performance requirements for a Discriminating Back-Up Alarm System.
Minimum performance criteria for service braking systems, emergency stopping systems, and parking systems for all self-propelled vibratory and static weight smooth steel wheel, pneumatic tired or multiple projection steel wheel rollers and compactors are provided in this S.A.E. recommended practice.
This report discusses the use of specialized analytical procedures that can be used to predict the structural behavior of ROPS and machine frame systems subjected to testing as described in SAE Recommended Practice J1040. For practical reasons, these complex calculations require the use of computerized methods. Specific approaches that are thought to be essential to preparing accurate analytical predictions are described. The importance of an experienced ROPS analyst is reviewed. The use of analytical procedures to predict the performance of ROPS is especially desirable for ROPS designed for installation on very large off-road machines, where problems of testing are extraordinarily great, and for predicting the effects of changes to proven ROPS designs before retesting. This report also covers the use of these analytical techniques as ROPS design tools.
The purpose of this report is to record the activities and recommendations of the Ride Meter Task Force assigned by the chairman of the SAE Joint Seating Subcommittee to determine availability of instrumentation to measure operator ride on mobile equipment. The desired characteristics of the meter included relatively low cost, easy to operate, highly portable, and sufficiently rugged to withstand the vibration levels encountered on agricultural or construction machines. It is recognized that a ride meter type instrument with a single numerical output provides only approximate indication of ride vibration quality, but is useful for general field evaluation or overall ride comparisons. A narrow band analysis of the vibration frequency spectrum is recommended for more accurate and complete results.
This document specifies the format, content and parameters for a product identification numbering system for off-road recreation vehicles, based on the PIN structure for earth-moving machinery in ISO 10261:2002E and is not applicable to the identification of components or attachments. This standard applies only to the off-road recreation vehicle industry and does not impose parameters for the marine, lawn and garden, silviculture, husbandry, construction or earth moving sectors.
