This standard is applicable to lasting machines used in the footwear manufacturing industry, namely: Adhesive fore part lasting machines (see figure 1), Hand operated adhesive side lasting machines (see figure 3 A), Adhesive seat lasting machines (see figure 2), Adhesive seat and side lasting machines (see figure 2), Hand operated tack/staple side lasting machines (see figure 3B), Tack seat lasting machines (see figure 2), Tack seat and side thermocement lasting machines (see figure 2), Tack heel seat and thermocent side lasting machines (see figure 2), Tack heel seat and thermocent + tack side lasting machines (see figure 2). This standard does not apply to lasting machines which process granular thermocement. This standard specifies requirements for safe design, construction and use of the machines. No specific requirements are included for transport, commissioning and decommissioning. It takes account of intended use, foreseeable misuse, component and system failure. This standard covers all hazards relevant to the footwear manufacturing industry. The use of machines within the scope of this standard in different industries may give rise to hazards which were not taken into account at the time of its preparation. This document is not applicable to lasting machines which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.
