ISO 16653:2011规定了适用于果园作业的移动式升降工作平台（MEWPs）的设计、计算、安全要求和试验方法。它旨在与ISO 16368结合使用，ISO 16368修改、补充或确认了ISO 16368的要求。 ISO 16653:2011规定了果园作业中使用的MEWP首次投入使用之前，要进行的结构设计计算和稳定性标准、施工、安全检查和测试。它确定了在果园作业中使用MEWPs产生的危害，并描述了消除或减少这些危害的方法。 它适用于单人吊杆式MEWPs，由平台控制，用于将人员移动到工作位置，以便在果园采摘水果和维护树木和棚架藤蔓。

ISO 16653:2011 specifies the design, calculations, safety requirements and test methods relevant to mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) suitable for orchard operations. It is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 16368, whose requirements it modifies, supplements or confirms. ISO 16653:2011 specifies the structural design calculations and stability criteria, construction, safety examinations and tests to be carried out before a MEWP to be used in orchard operations is first put into service. It identifies the hazards arising from the use of MEWPs in orchard operations and describes methods for the elimination or reduction of those hazards. It is applicable to single-person boom-type MEWPs, controlled from the platform and used to move a person to working positions for picking fruit and maintaining trees and trellis vines in an orchard.
