Bibliography

Describes safety requirements and their verification for the design and construction of hand fed, shredders/chippers with integral electric motor, not exceeding 250 V single phase, with or without vacuum assisted collection which are designed to reduce organic material to smaller pieces and are used in a stationary position by an operator standing on the ground.
