4 Technical Requirements
4.1 Basic Requirements
Airport vehicles shall comply with the relevant provisions of GB 7956.1.
4.2 Vehicle Requirements
4.2.1 The braking performance, rainproof sealing performance, reliability running performance, vehicle markings and identification, bodywork, equipment compartments, fixing of equipment and appliances, ladders, accompanying documentation, and appearance quality of the airport vehicle shall comply with the relevant requirements in GB 7956.1.
4.2.2 The fuel tank capacity shall be sufficient for the airport vehicle to operate continuously for 2 hours at its rated flow and rated outlet pressure after having traveled 100 km. For airport vehicles with a chassis driven by a traction battery, the capacity shall be sufficient for continuous operation for 30 minutes at its rated flow and rated outlet pressure after having traveled 50 km.
4.2.3 The location and method of operation for all controls on the airport vehicle shall be convenient for the driver or operator to use from within the cab.
4.2.4 The airport vehicle shall be equipped with a rollover prevention device or a lateral acceleration meter. If a lateral acceleration meter is installed, an audible and visual alarm device shall be provided.
