Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety - Part 2-72: Particular requirements for floor treatment machines with or without traction drive, for commercial use
IEC 60335-2-72:2012(E) deals with the safety of powered ride-on and powered walk-behind machines intended for commercial indoor or outdoor use for the following applications: - sweeping, - scrubbing, - wet or dry pick-up, - polishing, - application of wax, sealing products and powder based detergents, - shampooing of floors with an artificial surface. Their cleaning motion is more linear than lateral or periodic. This standard applies to machines for commercial use. The following list, although not comprehensive, gives an indication of locations that are included in the scope: - public use areas such as hotels, schools, hospitals; - industrial locations, for example factories and manufacturing shops; - retail outlets, for example shops and supermarkets; - business premises, for example offices and banks; - all uses other than normal housekeeping purposes. They may be equipped with a traction drive system. The following power systems are covered: - internal combustion engines, - mains powered motors up to a rated voltage of 250 V for single-phase appliances and 480 V for other appliances and - battery powered motors. Battery powered machines may be equipped with a built-in battery charger. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2002 and its Amendment 1 (2005). It constitutes a technical revision. The principal changes in this edition as compared with the second edition of IEC 60335-2-72 are as follows (minor changes are not listed). The standard has be revised completely and changed significantly, in particular with regard to the following clauses: - the title has been changed for better distinction with regard to IEC 60335-2-67; - the scope has been revised editorially to avoid misunderstandings; - Clause 3 has been revised with regard to the requirements revised; - the standard has been revised in general and updated regarding state-of-the-art, as far as necessary, in particular some changes have been made to Clauses 15, 22, and 25; - the markings and instructions (Clause 7) have been revised basically; - a new Annex DD 'Emission of acoustical noise' was added; - and a new Annex EE 'Emission of vibration' was added.

Endorsement notice
The text of the International Standard IEC 60335-2-72:2012 was approved by CENELEC as a
European Standard with agreed common modifications.
COMMON MODIFICATIONS
1 Scope
Add the following paragraph before the last one.
"This standard deals with the reasonably foreseeable hazards presented by machines that are
encountered by all persons.
However, in general, it does not take into account:
children playing with the machine;
the use of the machine by children;
the use of the machine by vulnerable people or very vulnerable people.".
3 Terms and definitions
3.6.3
accessible part
Modification:
Delete “and probe 18”.
7 Marking and instructions
7.10 Delete the following paragraphs:
"Devices used to start/stop operational functions of the appliance, if any, shall be distinguished from
other manual devices by means of shape, or size, or surface texture, or position, etc.
An indication that the device has been operated shall be given by:
A tactile feedback or
An audible and visual feedback.
NOTE Z1 The sound of the motor or sound of an actuator switching ON/OFF is regarded as audible feedback. The stopping of
the typical function (e.g. stopping of the vibration on the body of the appliance or of a part of it) is regarded as tactile means.
NOTE Z2 Devices used to start/stop operational functions mean devices that are operated by the user to start/stop the
intended function of the appliance.
A selector switch with an off-position clearly identifiable is allowed.
An ON/OFF switch, if any, is considered a suitable device to stop operational functions. A plug is not
considered a suitable device to stop operational functions, as it can be difficult to be reached by
vulnerable persons.".
th
7.12 Add the following paragraph after the 4 one:
"Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.".
Delete the paragraph beginning with “This appliance can be used…”.

40 kg are not tilted. Through openings, the test probe is applied to any depth that the probe will permit
and is rotated or angled before, during and after insertion to any position. If the opening does not allow
the entry of the probe, the force on the probe in the straight position is increased to 20 N. If the probe
then enters the opening, the test is repeated with the probe in the angled position.".
