This European Standard specifies safety requirements and their verification for the design and construction of powered rotary and cylinder lawnmowers, including pedestrian-controlled and ride-on (riding) types, and lawn and garden tractors, professional lawnmowers, and lawn and garden tractors with mowing attachments.<\/p>\n
This European Standard is not applicable to machines covered by EN 786, lawn edgers, flail mowers, scrub cutters, automatic (robot) mowers, sickle-bar mowers, or agricultural mowers.<\/p>\n
This standard is not applicable to rotary lawnmowers for which the cutting means is a generally circular central drive unit on which is mounted, either one or more non-metallic filaments or one or more non-metallic, pivotally mounted cutting elements. These cutting elements rely on centrifugal force to achieve cutting with the kinetic energy of a single cutting element not exceeding 10 J.<\/p>\n
It describes methods for the elimination or reduction of hazards arising from their use – in addition, it specifies the type of information to be provided by the manufacturer on safe working practices.<\/p>\n
This standard is not applicable to lawnmowers as covered by EN 60335-2-77 and EN 50338.<\/p>\n
The list of significant hazards dealt with in this standard is given in annex A. Annex A also indicates the hazards which have not been dealt with.<\/p>\n
The risk of contact with power driven components of ride-on machines (definition 3.28) other than the cutting means and ground contacting parts, has not been dealt with for persons other than the operator when in the driving position.<\/p>\n
Environmental aspects and EMC have not been dealt with in this standard.<\/p>\n
This document is not applicable to powered lawnmowers which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN.<\/p>\n
\nNOTE The reduction of risks from noise and vibration will be the subject of amendments to this standard now being developed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Specifies requirements and verification means for pedestrian-controlled, ride-on and lawn\/garden tractors with mowing attachments, including professional machines. Excludes lawn trimmers, scrub cutters and rotary mowers with non-metallic cutters with KE not greater than 10 Joules.<\/p>\n
