a) equipped with a blocking device. It shall not be possible
to switch off the electrical supply disconnecting device
after manually overriding the blocking device; or
b) not located on the same side of the machine as the
stop control(s).
Where pneumatic energy is used, a pneumatic isolator
shall be provided with a device for locking the isolator in
the isolated condition. Where the pneumatic supply is
used only for clamping, a quick action coupling in
accordance with EN ISO 4414:2010 without the means for
locking shall be acceptable when the isolated machine (or
part of machine) is so small that the disconnected
coupling can all the time easily be under the control of the
person making some intervention on the machine in
accordance with EN 1037:1995+A1:2008.
Verification: By checking the relevant drawings and/or
circuit diagrams, inspection of the machine and relevant
functional testing of the machine.
The basic principles of EN ISO 12100:2010, 6.2.15 shall
be observed and in addition at least the information for
maintenance listed in EN ISO 12100:2010, 6.4.5.1 e) shall
be provided.
Provision shall be made for storing the tools necessary for
changing the saw blade and for adjusting of the riving
knife on the machine.
Where lubrication points are provided they shall be
located outside of the saw blade(s) guarding and easily
accessible by the operator when standing on the floor.
Where residual pneumatic energy is stored, e.g. in a
reservoir or pipe, means for dumping residual pressure
shall be provided, e.g. by using a valve. Dumping
pressure shall not be by disconnection of a pipe.
If dumping of residual pneumatic pressure allows
movement of any machine component arising, then
pressure shall be maintained in the system to prevent
such hazardous movement and dumping of the residual
pneumatic pressure shall be by voluntary action on a
separate control.
