SAFETY OF TRANSPORTABLE MOTOR-OPERATED ELECTRIC TOOLS –
Part 2-11: Particular requirements for mitre-bench saws
FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the 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, the IEC publishes International Standards. 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. The 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 the 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 National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61029-2-11 has been prepared by subcommittee 61F: Safety of
hand-held motor-operated electric tools, of IEC technical committee 61: Safety of household
and similar electric appliances.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
61F/384/FDIS 61F/406/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
The part 2-11 is to be used in conjunction with the first edition of IEC 61029-1 (1990).
This part 2-11 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in IEC 61029-1, so as to
convert it into the IEC Standard: Safety requirements for mitre-bench saws.
– 4 – 61029-2-11 IEC:2001(E)
Where a particular subclause of part 1 is not mentioned in this part 2-11, that subclause
applies as far as reasonable. Where this standard states "addition", "modification" or
"replacement", the relevant text in part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
NOTE 1 The following print types are used:
– requirements: in roman type;
– test specifications: in italic type;
– notes: in small roman type.
The terms defined in clause 2 are printed in bold typeface.
NOTE 2 Subclauses, notes and figures which are additional to those in part 1 are numbered starting from 101.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until 2006.
At this date, the publication will be
reconfirmed;
withdrawn;
replaced by a revised edition, or
amended.
A bilingual version of this standard may be issued at a later date.

SAFETY OF TRANSPORTABLE MOTOR-OPERATED ELECTRIC TOOLS –
Part 2-11: Particular requirements for mitre-bench saws
1 Scope
This clause of part 1 is applicable except as follows:
1.1 Replace the first paragraph by:
This standard applies to combined mitre-bench saws intended for cutting non-ferrous metals
such as aluminium, wood or similar materials with a blade diameter not exceeding 350 mm, as
defined in 2.101.
2 Definitions
This clause of part 1 is applicable except as follows:
2.21 Replacement:
normal load
load obtained when the tool is operated continuously at a voltage equal to rated voltage or at
the upper limit of the rated voltage range, the torque applied to the spindle being such that the
input, in watts, is equal to the rated input
Addition:
2.101
combined mitre-bench saw
tool designed to cut non-ferrous metals such as aluminium, wood or similar materials by
means of a rotating toothed blade. The combined saw is equipped with two tables: a lower
table, which supports and positions the workpiece against a fence during the mitre action and
an upper table provided with a slot through which the saw blade projects, supporting the
workpiece which is fed by hand towards the saw blade
The saw blade is fitted on an arm suspended over the table; such arm is generally pivoted to
the saw support frame or directly to the saw table. In some cases, the chop action of the saw
blade is followed by a sliding movement (see figures 108, 109, 110)
2.102
lower table
table used to perform mitre operations
2.103
upper table
table used to perform bench operations
3 General requirement
This clause of part 1 is applicable.
– 6 – 61029-2-11 IEC:2001(E)
4 General notes on tests
This clause of part 1 is applicable.
5 Rating
This clause of part 1 is applicable.
6 Classification
This clause of part 1 is applicable.
7 Marking
This clause of part 1 is applicable except as follows:
7.1 Addition:
Combined mitre-bench saws shall be marked with
– rated saw blade diameter;
– rated no-load speed;
– indication of direction of rotation of the saw blade;
– maximum cutting depth capacity in bench saw operation.
Combined mitre-bench saws which may be changed to different no-load speeds shall be
marked, close to the means of adjustment, with the details of the method of changing the
speed and the resultant no-load speed obtained. This may be by means of sketches, etc.
7.6 Addition:
The direction of rotation of the blade shall be indicated on a fixed part in the vicinity of the
spindle axis by an arrow raised or sunk, which is visible when changing the blade, or by any
other means not less visible and indelible.
7.13 Addition:
In the handbook or information sheet the following instructions shall be given:
– do not use saw blades which are damaged or deformed;
– do not use the saw without the guards in position;
– replace table insert when worn;
– the specification of the material that can be cut;
– do not use the saw to cut materials other than those recommended;
– use only saw blades recommended by the manufacturer;
– connect the saw to a dust collection device when sawing;
– select saw blades in relation to the material to be cut;
– maximum depth of cut;
