Scope
This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events as listed in Clause 4 which are relevant to down cutting cross-cut saws and dual purpose down cutting cross-cut saws/circular saw benches, herein after referred to as "machines", designed to cut solid wood, chipboard, fibreboard, plywood and also these materials where they are covered with plastic edging and/or plastic/light alloy laminates when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer including reasonably foreseeable misuse. NOTE 1 For the definition of down cutting cross-cut saws and dual purpose down cutting cross-cut saws/circular saw benches, see 3.2.2, 3.2.3 and 3.2.4, and for the definition of displaceable machine, see 3.2.8. This document does not apply to: - machines for cross cutting logs; - hand-held motor-operated electric tools or any adaptation permitting their use in a different mode, e. g. bench mounting; NOTE 2 Hand-held motor-operated electric tools and saw benches to form an integrated whole with a hand-held motor- operated electric tools are covered by EN 60745-1:2009 together with EN 60745-2-5:2010; - transportable machines set up on a bench or a table similar to a bench, which are intended to carry out work in a stationary position, capable of being lifted by one person by hand i.e. maximum mass 25 kg. NOTE 3 Transportable motor-operated electric tools are covered by the requirements of EN 61029-1:2009 together with EN 61029-2-9:2009 and EN 61029-2-11:2009. This document is not applicable to down cutting cross-cut saws and dual purpose down cutting cross-cut saws/circular saw benches which are manufactured before the date of its publication as European Standard.
