Overview

EN 62841-3-10:2015/A1:2022 is a European standard published by CLC that specifies safety requirements for electric motor-operated transportable cut-off machines. It is an amendment (A1) to the original 2015 edition, introducing important clarifications, corrections, and updates. This standard forms part of the broader IEC 62841 series, which covers safety guidelines for hand-held tools, transportable tools, and lawn and garden machinery.

The primary focus of EN 62841-3-10:2015/A1:2022 is to ensure the safety of users when operating transportable cut-off machines by detailing mechanical, electrical, and operational safety requirements. It supports compliance with applicable EU Directives and aims to promote harmonized safety practices across European markets.

Key Topics

• Scope and Applicability: Covers transportable cut-off machines powered by electric motors, including definitions and essential safety aspects specific to these tools.

• Safety Functions and Performance Levels: Details safety critical functions (SCFs) such as power switch operation, electronic controls, prevention of thermal overload, over-speed protection, and prevention of unwanted machine startup.

• Mechanical Safety Features:

  • Requirements for flanges, including flatness, absence of sharp edges, and keyed attachment to output spindles.
  • Special provisions for diamond wheel flanges, specifying precise dimensions and ensuring secure mounting.

• Mechanical Strength and Endurance: Defines testing protocols including no-load operation at rated voltage for durability verification.

• Noise and Vibration Measurement: Specifies standardized test conditions for noise emission assessments, including workpiece dimensions, tool bit characteristics, feed force, depth of cut, and test cycle details.

• Exclusions and Modifications: Identifies which clauses from Part 1 (General Requirements) do not apply or have been replaced for transportable cut-off machines.

Applications

• Manufacturers and Designers: Use this standard to guide design and production of transportable cut-off machines, ensuring compliance with EU safety directives and reducing liability risks.

• Safety Assessors and Certifiers: Apply the detailed performance level requirements and testing methods to verify machine safety and conformity prior to market release.

• Workplace Safety Professionals: Leverage the standard’s guidelines to develop safer operational procedures and training for transportable cut-off machine users in construction, metalworking, and other industrial environments.

• Regulators and Authorities: Reference this document to support national implementation of harmonized safety rules in electromechanical tool sectors.

Related Standards

• IEC 62841-1:2014: Provides the general safety requirements for electric motor-operated hand-held tools, transportable tools, and lawn and garden machinery, serving as the foundational Part 1 standard.

• ISO 630-2:2011: Covers technical delivery conditions for structural steels, referenced for standardized workpiece specifications during noise testing.

• EN 62841 Series: Complements other parts of the IEC 62841 family addressing different types of tools and machinery safety requirements.

co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
