Annex A (informative) Annex I of the "Machinery Directive"
A.1 Annex I of the Council Directive of 14 June 1989 on
the approximation of the laws of the Member States
relating to machinery (89/392/EEC): Essential health
and safety requirements relating to the design and
construction of machinery
A.2 Amendments to Annex I of the Directive 89/392/EEC

Annex B (informative) Bibliography
Annex C (informative) Main terminological discrepancies
between EN 292 and Machinery Directive (89/392/EEC)
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.
