Sažetak

Technical measures of user protection from harmful substances during the application of pesticides in agriculture are emphasized in this paper. According to the new Act on type-approval of tractors in the countries of the European Union, four categories of tractor cabins with different degrees of user protection from harmful substances are defined. According to the analysis of the old and new tractors in the EU, it is also necessary to use the proscribed personal protective equipment while using sprinklers and sprayers. However, it still happens in practice that users (tractor operators) do not use proper personal protective equipment (especially for the respiratory organs) during the preparation and treatment of protection means.
