This European Standard was approved by CENELEC on 2011-10-10. CENELEC members are bound to
comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European
Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration.

Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards may be obtained on
application to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre or to any CENELEC member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and
notified to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre has the same status as the official versions.

CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland,
Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania,
Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

Foreword
This document (EN 61029-2-5:2011) consists of the text of IEC 61029-2-5:1993 and its
amendment 1:2001, prepared by IEC/TC 116 "Safety of motor-operated electric tools", together
with the common modifications prepared by the CLC/TC 116, "Safety of motor-operated
electric tools"
The following dates are fixed:
– latest date by which the existence of the EN

has to be announced at national level
(doa) 2012-04-10
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented

at national level by publication of an identical

national standard or by endorsement
(dop) 2012-10-10
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting

with the EN have to be withdrawn
(dow) 2014-10-10
This document supersedes EN 61029-2-5:2002.
The main changes with respect to EN 61029-2-5:2002 are in 7.13 (improved wording) and in
Clause 18 (Stability and mechanical hazards). Additionally, dust measurement is now handled
in the new Annex ZD instead of 13.1. These changes aim to adapt EN 61029-2-5 to EN 61029-
1:2009 and to MD (2006/42/EC).
In this document the common modifications to the International Standard are indicated by a
vertical line in the left margin of the text.
This European Standard is divided into two parts:
Part 1 General requirements that are common to most transportable electric motor operated
tools (for the purpose of this standard referred to simply as tools) which could come
within the scope of this standard;
Part 2 Requirements for particular types of tool which either supplement or modify the
requirements given in Part 1 to account for the particular hazards and characteristics of
these specific tools.
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN/CENELEC by the
European Commission and the European Free Trade Association and covers essential
requirements of EC Directive 2006/42/EC. See Annex ZZ.
Compliance with the relevant clauses of Part 1 together with this Part 2 provides one means of
conforming with the specified essential health and safety requirements of the Directives.
This European Standard follows the overall requirements of EN ISO 12100.
For noise and vibration, this European Standard covers the requirements for their
measurement, the provision of information arising from these measurements and the provision
of information about the personal protective equipment required. Specific requirements for the
reduction of the risk arising from noise and vibration through the design of the tool are not
given as this reflects the current state of the art.
Warning: Other requirements arising from other EC Directives can be applicable to the
products falling within the scope of this standard.

– 3 – EN 61029-2-5:2011
This Part 2-5 is to be used in conjunction with EN 61029-1:2009. This Part 2-5 supplements or
modifies the corresponding clauses of EN 61029-1, so as to convert it into the European
Standard: "Safety requirements for transportable band saws".
Where a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this Part 2-5, that subclause applies
as far as is reasonable. Where this Part 2-5 states "addition", "modification" or "replacement",
the relevant text of Part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
Subclauses, tables and figures which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered starting
from 101. Subclauses, tables and figures which are additional to those in IEC 61029-2-5 are
prefixed "Z".
NOTE In this standard the following print types are used:
- Requirements proper;
- Test specifications;
- Explanatory matter.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the
subject of patent rights. CENELEC [and/or CEN] shall not be held responsible for identifying
any or all such patent rights.
