Machinery for forestry - Safety requirements and testing for pole-mounted powered pruners - Part 1: Machines fitted with an integral combustion engine (ISO 11680-1:2021)

This document specifies safety requirements and measures for their verification for the design and
construction of portable, hand-held, pole-mounted powered pruners (hereafter named “machine”),
including extendable and telescopic machines, having an integral combustion engine as their power
source. These machines use a power transmission shaft to transmit power to a cutting attachment
consisting of a saw-chain and guide bar, a reciprocating saw blade or a single-piece circular saw blade
with a 205 mm maximum outside diameter. Methods for the elimination or reduction of hazards arising
from the use of these machines and the type of information on safe working practices to be provided by
the manufacturer are specified.
This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events with the
exception of electric shock from contact with overhead electric lines (apart from warnings and advice
for inclusion in the instructions), relevant to these machines when they are used as intended and under
conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Annex A).
This document is applicable to portable, hand-held, pole-mounted powered pruners manufactured after
its date of publication.
Brush cutters with a circular saw blade are not included in the scope of this document.
NOTE Brush cutter requirements are outlined in ISO 11806-1:2021.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 11680-1:2020(E)
Machinery for forestry — Safety requirements and testing
for pole-mounted powered pruners —
Part 1:
Machines fitted with an integral combustion engine
1 Scope
This part of ISO 11680 gives safety requirements and measures for their verification for the design
and construction of portable, hand-held, pole-mounted powered pruners (hereafter named “machine”),
including extendable and telescopic machines, having an integral combustion engine as their power
source. These machines use a power transmission shaft to transmit power to a cutting attachment
consisting of a saw chain and guide bar, a reciprocating saw blade or a single-piece circular saw blade
with a 205 mm maximum outside diameter. Methods for the elimination or reduction of hazards arising
from the use of these machines and the type of information on safe working practices to be provided by
the manufacturer are specified.
This part of ISO 11680 deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events
with the exception of electric shock from contact with overhead electric lines (apart from warnings and
advice for inclusion in the instructions), relevant to these machines when they are used as intended and
under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Annex A).
This part of ISO 11680 is applicable to portable, hand-held, pole-mounted powered pruners
manufactured after its date of publication.
NOTE Brush cutters with a circular saw blade are not included in the scope of this standard. Brush cutter
requirements are outlined in ISO 11806-1.
