EN 792-4:2000+A1:2008

Hand-held non-electric power tools - Safety requirements - Part 4: Non-rotary percussive power tools

The standard EN 792 applies to hand-held non-electric power tools driven by rotary or linear motors, powered by compressed air, hydraulic fluid and intended to be used by one operator and supported by:
-   the operator's hand or hands,
-   a suspension, e.g. a balancer.
This part, EN 792-4, applies to non electric power tools used for chipping, riveting, breaking of concrete and asphalt, ramming etc. This part lists the significant hazards caused by such power tools and specifies safety requirements valid for different aspects of safety during their foreseeable lifetime.
Power tools covered by this part of the standard:
-   breakers,
-   chipping hammers,
-   chisels, small,
-   engraving pens,
-   needle scalers,
-   pick hammers,
-   pile drivers,
-   punches,
-   rammers,
-   riveting hammers,
-   scaling hammers,
-   stone working tools,
-   spades,
-   tampers.
Special requirements and modifications on a hand-held power tool for the purpose of mounting it in a fixture are not covered by this part.
For those power tools which are driven by an internal combustion engine the particular safety requirements related to the engine are dealt with in annex C.

Machines portatives à moteur non électrique - Prescriptions de sécurité - Partie 4: Machines portatives non rotatives à percussion

La norme européenne EN 792 s'applique aux machines portatives non électriques entraînées par des moteurs
rotatifs ou linéaires, alimentés par air comprimé, fluide hydraulique et prévues pour être utilisées par un seul
opérateur et portée par :
— la (ou les) main(s) de l'opérateur,
— en suspension, par exemple à l'aide d'un équilibreur.
Cette partie, EN 792-4, s'applique aux machines portatives non électriques utilisées pour buriner, river, briser le béton
et l'asphalte, dammer, etc. ; elle spécifie les prescriptions de sécurité qui s'y rapportent. Cette partie énumère
les risques significatifs provoqués par de telles machines portatives et spécifie les prescriptions de sécurité relatives
aux différents aspects de sécurité pouvant être rencontrés pendant leur durée de vie.
La présente norme couvre les types de machines portatives suivantes :
- brise béton ;
- marteaux burineurs ;
- petits burins ;
- crayons à graver ;
- marteaux à aiguilles ;
- marteaux piqueurs ;
- marteaux batteurs de pieux ;
- perforateurs ;
- marteaux fouloirs ;
- marteaux riveurs ;
- marteaux dérouilleurs-détartreurs ;
- machines pour le travail de la pierre ;
- marteaux bêche ;
- marteaux bourre-ballast.
Les modifications et prescriptions spécifiques en vue du montage d'une machine portative sur un support ne sont pas
traitées par cette partie.
Les prescriptions particulières de sécurité relatives aux machines portatives non rotatives à percussion mues par
un moteur à combustion interne sont traitées à l'annexe C.
