UNE-EN ISO 19085-9:2020

This international standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events as listed

in Clause 4 which are relevant to stationary and displaceable circular saw benches (with or without

sliding table and/or demountable power feed unit), also known as table saws (in the USA), hereinafter

referred to as machines , designed to cut wood and material with similar physical characteristics to

wood, when they are operated, adjusted and maintained as intended and under the conditions foreseen

by the manufacturer including reasonably foreseeable misuse. Also transport, assembly, dismantling,

disabling and scrapping phases are taken into account.

NOTE 1 For the definition of stationary and displaceable machine see ISO 19085 1, 3.4 and 3.5.

The machines may also be fitted with one or more of the following devices/facilities, whose hazards

have been dealt with:

facility for the main saw blade and scoring saw blade to be raised and lowered though the table;

facility to tilt the main saw blade and scoring saw blade for angled cutting;

facility for scoring;

facility for grooving with milling tool with a width not exceeding 20 mm in one pass;

demountable power feed unit;

additional manually operated sliding table;

powered work piece clamping.

NOTE 2 Circular saw benches are used for ripping, cross cutting, dimensioning and grooving.

This international standard does not apply to:

a) transportable / displaceable machines (machines set up on a bench or provided with extendable

legs and intended to operate when stationary) having a rated input of less than or equal to 3700

NOTE 3 Transportable motor operated electric tools are covered by the requirements of IEC 62841 1:2014

together with IEC 62841 3 1:2014.

c) machines intended for use in potentially explosive atmosphere;

d) machines manufactured before the date of its publication as an international standard.
