This document specifies the safety requirements and measures for dimension saws (defined in 3.1), capable of continuous production use and hereinafter referred to also as “machines”. The machines are designed to cut solid wood and material with similar physical characteristics to wood. This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events, listed in Annex A, relevant to the machines, when operated, adjusted and maintained as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer; reasonably foreseeable misuse has been considered too. Transport, assembly, dismantling, disabling and scrapping phases have also been taken into account. This document is also applicable to machines fitted with one or more of the following devices/additional working units, whose hazards have been dealt with: a)      device to raise and lower the main saw blade and scoring saw blade; b)      device to tilt the main saw blade and scoring saw blade for angled cutting in one or both directions; c)       device for scoring; d)      device for grooving with milling tool with a width not exceeding 20 mm; e)      demountable power feed unit; f)        power-operated sliding table; g)      workpiece clamping. This document is not applicable to machines intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres or to machines manufactured prior to the date of its publication.

This document gives the safety requirements and measures for table band saws and band resaws, with manual loading and/or unloading and suitable for continuous production use, hereinafter referred to as “machines”. The machines are designed to cut solid wood and material with similar physical characteristics to wood. It deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events, listed in Annex A, relevant to the machines, when operated, adjusted and maintained as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer; reasonably foreseeable misuse has been considered too. Also, transport, assembly, dismantling, disabling and scrapping phases have been taken into account. It is also applicable to machines fitted with one or more of the following devices/additional working units, whose hazards have been dealt with: a) device to tilt the table; b) device to tilt the saw unit. This document does not apply to: 1)   machines driven by combustion engines or power take offs (PTO); 2)   log band sawing machines; NOTE Log band sawing machines are covered by EN 1807-2:2013. 3)   horizontal band saws and band resaws; 4)   machines designed for cross-cutting of firewood. This document does not deal with hazards related to the combination of a single machine being used with any other machine (as part of a line). This document is not applicable to machines intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres or to machines manufactured prior to the date of its publication.

This document gives the safety requirements and measures for numerically controlled (NC/CNC) boring machines, NC/CNC routing machines and NC/CNC boring and routing machines (as defined in 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4), capable of continuous production use, hereinafter referred to as "machines". This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events, listed in Annex A, relevant to the machines when they are operated, adjusted and maintained as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer including reasonably foreseeable misuse. Also, transport, assembly, dismantling, disabling and scrapping phases have been taken into account. This document is also applicable to machines fitted with one or more of the following devices/additional working units, whose hazards have been dealt with: —   additional working units for sawing, sanding, assembling or dowel inserting; —   fixed or movable workpiece support; —   mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic or vacuum workpiece clamping; —   automatic tool change devices. It is also applicable to machines fitted with edge-banding equipment, even if the relevant specific hazards have not been dealt with. NOTE     For the risk assessment needed for the edge-banding equipment, ISO 19085-17 can be useful. Machines covered in this document are designed for workpieces consisting of: —   solid wood; —   material with similar physical characteristics to wood (see ISO 19085-1:2021, 3.2); —   gypsum boards, gypsum bounded fibreboards, cardboard; —   matrix engineered mineral boards, silicate boards; —   composite materials with core consisting of polyurethane or mineral material laminated with light alloy; —   polymer-matrix composite materials and reinforced thermoplastic/thermoset/elastomeric materials; —   aluminium light alloy profiles; —   aluminium light alloy plates with a maximum thickness of 10 mm; —   composite boards made from the materials listed above. This document does not deal with specific hazards related to: —   use of grinding wheels; —   ejection through openings guarded by curtains on machines where the height of the opening in the enclosure above the workpiece support exceeds 700 mm; —   ejection due to failure of milling tools with a cutting circle diameter equal to or greater than 16 mm and sawing tools not conforming to EN 847‑1:2017 and EN 847‑2:2017; —   the combination of a single machine being used with other machines (as a part of a line); —   integrated workpiece loading/unloading systems (e.g. robots). This document is not applicable to: —   single spindle hand fed or integrated fed routing machines; —   machines intended for use in potentially explosive atmosphere; —   machines manufactured prior to its publication.
