1.1This document applies to concrete compactors and smoothing machines as defined in Clause 3 and illustrated in Annex A and Annex B.This standard also applies for hand-held motor-operated concrete vibrators as defined in EN 60745-2-12:2003, but with the additional safety requirements for electronically controlled systems as defined in this standard (see 5.2.1.2).1.2This document does not deal with auxiliary equipment which provides the energy for internal and external vibrators, e.g. air compressors, hydraulic power sources and voltage transformers. This document does not apply to remote-controlled or portable smoothing machines and self-acting (robotic) smoothing machines.1.3This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to concrete com-pactors and smoothing machines, when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manu-facturer (see Clause 4). This document specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce risks aris-ing from the significant hazards.This standard also includes measures to consider reasonably foreseeable misuse.1.4This document is not applicable to machines which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CEN.
