Hand-held non-electric power tools - Safety requirements - Part 13: Fastener driving tools
This standard is applicable to fastener driving tools which are handled by one person and in which energy in a linear movement is applied to a loaded fastener for the purpose of driving this into a workpiece of a determined material. During the driving operation, the fastener leaves the tool partially or entirely, with sufficient velocity to overcome the resistance of penetration, and forms a mechanical connection or attachment of different workpieces. The energy required for driving a fastener is provided by compressed air or combustible gases.
NOTE 1 Fastener driving tools are also referred to for example as Nailers, Staplers, Tackers, Pinners.
NOTE 2 The workpiece material can, for example, consist of wood, wooden materials, plastic material, fibre materials - loose or condensed, cement- and lime materials, metal.
This standard contains requirements for the design, marking and information for use of fastener driving tools, corresponding to the specific hazards listed in clause 4. The standard sets out the means of verification for these requirements.
Where, for clarity, an example of a safety measure is given in the text, this shall not be considered as the only possible solution. Any other solution leading to the same risk reduction is permissible if an equivalent level of safety is achieved.
This standard is applicable to fastener driving tools which have been produced after the date of publication of the standard.
This standard is not applicable to stapling pliers and vibration hammers.
NOTE 3 "Stapling pliers" are handheld power operated tools equipped with a fixed or moving anvil bar in front of the muzzle, which are used predominantly for joining paper, leather, textiles and similar materials.
This standard is not applicable to fastener driving tools in which the energy for driving fasteners is drawn from cartridges or from any type of electric supply.

3 Definitions
The following definitions are applicable for the purpose of this standard:
3.1
fastener driving tool
a handheld power tool in which energy is applied in a linear movement to a loaded fastener for the purpose of
driving the latter into defined materials. During the driving operation, the fastener leaves the tool partially or
completely. The tool may be fitted with a single-, sequential-, contact- or continuous release system and
operated in accordance therewith. The energy required for driving operation is drawn from compressed air,
combustible gases, or any other source whose energy can be stored inside the fastener driving tool and
released as required
3.2
fastener
the concept "fastener" comprises nails, staples, pins, corrugated fasteners, screws used as nails, dowels,
sleeves, bushes, cable collars and base supports
3.3
collating material
material for joining together single fasteners in strips or coils with e.g. lacquer, paper or plastic tape, plastic
strap or wire
3.4
trigger
component part of the fastener driving tool used to supply energy to the driving mechanism
3.5
safety yoke
mechanism with a workpiece contact element in the muzzle area which prevents the tool from driving a
fastener if it is not pressed against the workpiece (See figure 1)
3.6 actuating systems
3.6.1 Actuating systems on fastener driving tools with a safety yoke
3.6.1.1
single sequential actuation
an actuating system in which the trigger and the safety yoke have to be operated so that only one single
driving operation is actuated via the trigger after the muzzle of the tool has been applied to the driving
location. Thereafter further driving operations can only be performed after the trigger has been returned to the
non driving position whilst the safety yoke remains depressed
3.6.1.2
full sequential actuation
an actuating system in which the trigger and the safety yoke have to be interconnected so that only one single
driving operation is actuated via the trigger after the muzzle of the tool has been applied to the driving
location. Thereafter further driving operations can only be performed if the trigger and the safety yoke have
first been returned to the non driving position
3.6.1.3
contact actuation
an actuating system in which the trigger and the safety yoke have to be actuated for each driving operation,
with the order of actuation not being specified. For repeated driving operations, it is sufficient that either the
trigger remains activated and the safety yoke is activated thereafter, or vice versa
3.6.1.4
continuous contact actuation
an actuating system in which the trigger and the safety yoke have to be actuated, with the order of actuation
not being specified. The driving operations continue as long as the trigger
