Annex D (informative) Trilingual alphabetical index

Describes technical principles and specifications to help designers and manufacturers achieve safety in the design of machinery for professional and non-professional purposes. May be used for other technical products having similar hazards. It is recommended that this standard is incorporated in training courses or in manuals to convey technical principles and specifications to designers, etc.
