Place and secure the toy scooter upside down on a podium -(see Figure 26 c)).. Check that the locking<br />
devices are correctly engaged.<br />
a) For toy scooters with two handles, suspend a mass of (25 ± 0,2) kg at the centre of each handle. Maintain<br />
the load for 5 min.<br />
b) For toy scooters with steering tubes without handles, place a mass of (50 ± 0,5) kg on the end of the<br />
steering tube. Maintain the load for 5 min.<br />
Determine whether the steering tube has separated and the locking devices are still operable and engaged.<br />

8.28.1 Installation and mounting conditions<br />
8.28.1.1 General<br />
Perform the measurements on a new toy. Test battery toys using new primary batteries or fully charged<br />
secondary batteries.<br />
NOTE External power supplies should not be used as they will, in many cases, affect the performance of the toy.<br />
8.28.1.2 Test environment<br />
Any environment which meets the qualification requirements of <strong>EN</strong> ISO 3746:1995, Annex A.<br />
NOTE 1 In practice this means that most normally furnished rooms with a volume exceeding 30 m 3 will qualify at<br />
measurement distances of 50 cm providing that the largest dimension of the toy does not exceed 50 cm. For distances<br />
shorter than 25 cm almost any environment will qualify.<br />
NOTE 2 If the more accurate <strong>EN</strong> ISO 11201 is used the test environment should meet the requirements of<br />
<strong>EN</strong> ISO 3744.<br />
