IEC 62841-3-9:2014

Electric motor-operated hand-held tools, transportable tools and lawn and garden machinery - Safety - Part 3-9: Particular requirements for transportable mitre saws

IEC 62841-3-9:2014 applies to transportable mitre saws intended to be used with a toothed saw blade for cutting wood and analogous materials, plastics and nonferrous metals except magnesium with a saw blade diameter not exceeding 360 mm, which hereinafter might simply be referred to as saw or tool. This standard does not apply to mitre saws intended to cut other metals, such as magnesium, steel and iron. This standard does not apply to mitre saws with an automatic feeding device. This standard does not apply to saws designed for use with abrasive wheels. This standard does not apply to tools combining the function of a mitre saw with the function of a table saw. The attention of National Committees is drawn to the fact that equipment manufacturers and testing organizations may need a transitional period following publication of a new, amended or revised IEC publication in which to make products in accordance with the new requirements and to equip themselves for conducting new or revised tests. It is the recommendation of the committee that the content of this publication be adopted for implementation nationally not earlier than 36 months from the date of publication. Key words: Mitre saw, Saw, Saw unit,
This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 62841-1:2014. The contents of the corrigendum of October 2015 and August 2016 have been included in this copy.

Outils électroportatifs à moteur, outils portables et machines pour jardins et pelouses - Sécurité - Partie 3-9: Exigences particulières pour les scies à onglets transportables

L'IEC 62841-3-9:2014 s'applique aux scies à onglets transportables destinées à être utilisées avec une lame de scie dentée pour la coupe du bois et de matériaux analogues, de plastiques et de métaux non ferreux à l'exception du magnésium, la lame de scie ayant un diamètre ne dépassant pas 360 mm, celle-ci pouvant être simplement désignée ci-après comme scie ou outil. La présente norme ne s'applique pas aux scies à onglets utilisées pour couper d'autres métaux, tels que le magnésium, l'acier et le fer. La présente norme ne s'applique pas aux scies à onglets équipées d'un appareil d'alimentation automatique. L'attention des Comités Nationaux est attirée sur le fait que les fabricants d'appareils et les organismes d'essai peuvent avoir besoin d'une période transitoire après la publication d'une nouvelle publication CEI, ou d'une publication amendée ou révisée, pour fabriquer des produits conformes aux nouvelles exigences et pour adapter leurs équipements aux nouveaux essais ou aux essais révisés. Le comité recommande que le contenu de cette publication soit entériné au niveau national au plus tôt 36 mois après la date de publication. Mots-clés: scie à onglet, scie, outil de coupe
Cette publication doit être lue conjointement avec la CEI 62841-1:2014. Le contenu du corrigendum d'octobre 2015 et d'août 2016 a été pris en considération dans cet exemplaire.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international 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 with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasona
