本文件规定了能够连续生产使用的尺寸锯（定义见3.1）的安全要求和措施，以下也称为“机器”。 这些机器旨在切割实木和具有与木材相似物理特性的材料。 本文件涉及附件A中列出的与机器相关的所有重大危险、危险情况和事件，这些危险、危险和事件是在制造商预期的条件下按预期操作、调整和维护的；合理可预见的误用也被考虑在内。运输、组装、拆卸、禁用和报废阶段也被考虑在内。 本文件也适用于配备以下一个或多个设备/附加工作单元的机器，其危险已得到处理: a） 提升和降低主锯片和划线锯片的装置； b） 倾斜主锯片和划线锯片的装置，用于在一个或两个方向上进行斜角切割； c） 评分装置； d） 宽度不超过20mm的铣刀开槽装置； e） 可拆卸供电装置； f） 电动滑台； g） 工件夹紧。 本文件不适用于拟用于潜在爆炸性环境的机器，也不适用于在其发布日期之前制造的机器。

This document specifies the safety requirements and measures for dimension saws (defined in 3.1), capable of continuous production use and hereinafter referred to also as “machines”. The machines are designed to cut solid wood and material with similar physical characteristics to wood. This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events, listed in Annex A, relevant to the machines, when operated, adjusted and maintained as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer; reasonably foreseeable misuse has been considered too. Transport, assembly, dismantling, disabling and scrapping phases have also been taken into account. This document is also applicable to machines fitted with one or more of the following devices/additional working units, whose hazards have been dealt with: a)       device to raise and lower the main saw blade and scoring saw blade; b)       device to tilt the main saw blade and scoring saw blade for angled cutting in one or both directions; c)        device for scoring; d)       device for grooving with milling tool with a width not exceeding 20 mm; e)       demountable power feed unit; f)         power-operated sliding table; g)       workpiece clamping. This document is not applicable to machines intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres or to machines manufactured prior to the date of its publication.
