IEC 62841-2-4:2014 applies to hand-held sanders and polishers with the exception of disc-type tools covered by IEC 62841-2-3. Tools covered by this standard include but are not limited to belt sanders, drum sanders or polishers, reciprocating sanders or polishers, orbital sanders or polishers and random orbit sanders or polishers. The rated voltage is not more than 250 V for single-phase a.c. or d.c. tools, and 480 V for three-phase a.c. tools. The rated input is not more than 3 700 W. The limits for the applicability of this standard for battery tools is given in Annex K. This standard deals with the hazards presented by tools which are encountered by all persons in the normal use and reasonably foreseeable misuse of the tools. Hand-held electric tools, which can be mounted on a support or working stand for use as fixed tools without any alteration of the tool itself, are within the scope of this standard and such combination of a hand-held tool and a support is considered to be a transportable tool and thus covered by the relevant Part 3. 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: Sander, Polisher, Belt, Drum Orbital, Reciprocating, Random Orbit This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 62841-1:2014.

IEC 62841-4-9:2026 applies to rechargeable battery-powered motor-operated chain saws for tree service, hereinafter referred to as chain saws or machines, having a maximum mass of 5,0 kg. The mass includes the heaviest detachable battery pack(s), if any, as described in IEC 62841-1:2014, K.8.14.2 e) 2), but excludes the guide bar, saw chain and saw chain lubricant. Chain saws covered by this document are intended to be used for pruning and dismantling standing tree crowns. The chain saws covered by this document are designed only to be operated with the right hand on the rear handle and the left hand on the front handle. This document does not apply to – chain saws supplied by mains power or power from non-isolated sources that permit the machine to be used while connected to such power supplies; or – chain saws supplied by integral batteries; or – chain saws for cutting wood as covered by IEC 62841-4-1; or – chain saws designed for use in conjunction with a guide-plate and riving knife or in any other way such as with a support or as a stationary or transportable machine; or – pole-mounted pruners; or NOTE 1 Pole-mounted pruners are covered by IEC 62841-4-10. – pruning saws. NOTE 2 Pruning saws will be covered by a future part of IEC 62841-4. The maximum rated voltage for machines and battery packs is 75 V d.c. Battery machines covered by this document are not considered to be class I tools, class II tools or class III tools and therefore are not required to have basic insulation, supplementary insulation or reinforced insulation. Electric shock hazard is considered to exist only between parts of opposite polarity. This document deals with the hazards presented by machines which are encountered by all persons in the normal use and reasonably foreseeable misuse of the machines. When evaluating a rechargeable battery pack for protection against electric shock during charging, creepage distances, clearances and distances through insulation, the relevant requirements of this document are applicable with the battery pack fitted to the intended charger. Since rechargeable battery packs for machines are submitted to different use patterns (such as rough use, high charging and discharging currents), their safety can be evaluated only by this document and not by using other standards for rechargeable battery packs, such as IEC 62133-1:2017 or IEC 62133-2:2017, unless otherwise indicated in this document. All relevant aspects related to the safety of rechargeable batteries are addressed in this document, such that the requirements of IEC 62133-1:2017 or IEC 62133-2:2017 are not required to be separately applied. When evaluating the risk of fire associated with rechargeable battery packs for machines, consideration has been given to the fact that these battery packs are unattended energy sources and have been evaluated as such in this document. Requirements in other standards regarding the risk of fire due to the charging of these battery packs are therefore considered to be fulfilled. This document also addresses requirements covering the use of lithium-ion cells employed in battery systems in machines. The following is considered within the context of these requirements: – These requirements address the risk of fire or explosion of these batteries and not any possible hazards associated with toxicity nor potential hazards associated with transportation or disposal. NOTE 3 IEC 62281:2019 covers the safety aspects of lithium-ion batteries during transport. – Battery systems c

IEC 60947-5-5:2026 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) re-shaping the document with the clause numbers and names to be in line with other documents of the 60947 series; b) review of the test method to reasonably determine that the latch mechanism meets the requirements of the document; c) new Annex B for special requirements for illuminated push-button type emergency stop devices, including the reference to a function to distinguish between "active and inactive" by changing the colour of the push-button depending on the illumination. This part of IEC 60947-5 provides detailed specifications relating to the electrical and mechanical construction of emergency stop devices with mechanical latching function and to their testing. This document is applicable to electrical control circuit devices and switching elements which are used to initiate an emergency stop signal. Such devices can be provided with their own enclosure and will be installed according to the product documentation. This document does not apply to: – emergency stop devices for non-electrical control applications, for example hydraulic or pneumatic; – emergency stop devices without mechanical latching function. An emergency stop device conforming to this document can also be used as part of an emergency switching off means in compliance with IEC 60364-5-53. NOTE See also IEC 60204-1:2016 and IEC 60204-1:2016/AMD1:2021, 9.2.3.4. This document does not address specific requirements on acoustic noise as the noise emission of electrical emergency stop devices with mechanical latching function is not considered to be a relevant hazard. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1997. This edition constitutes a technical revision.

Frequently Asked Questions

A European Standardization Mandate is a formal request from the European Commission to the European Standardization Organizations (CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI) to develop European standards (ENs) in support of EU legislation and policies. Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.

M/605 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION of 20.1.2025 on a standardisation request to the European Committee for Standardization and to the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization as regards machinery and related products in support of Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 of the European Parliament and of the Council". COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION of 20.1.2025 on a standardisation request to the European Committee for Standardization and to the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization as regards machinery and related products in support of Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 of the European Parliament and of the Council There are 86 standards developed under this mandate.

Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
