Establishes guidelines on general rules for preparation and presentation of manuals for earth-moving machinery. Based on considerations that drivers, operators and mechanics may have received only a short training in a language in which they are not proficient. Requires manuals to be simple to understand, have adequate explanatory notes, use internationally recognized symbols, be easy to use, compact, and made of durable hard-wearing material.

This International Standard establishes guidelines on the general rules necessary for the preparation and presentation of manuals for earth-moving machinery as defined in ISO 6165.
