Test Report No.: 17702074 003
Part I of II
functional testing of the machine.
Protection against mechanical hazards
It shall be possible to fix stationary circular saw benches
to a suitable stable structure e.g. floor. Facilities for fixing
are, e.g. fixing holes in the machine frame and the
necessary fixing devices (see 6.3 e)).
Building site saws shall be rigid.
Any displaceable machines shall be stable during
transportation (see also 6.3 h) and i)).
Displaceable machines shall be stable during machining
(see Annex A).
Displaceable machines may have the facility to make
them stable and levelled during machining (e.g. by
providing brakes for the wheels or a device to retract the
wheels from the floor).
Verification: By checking relevant drawings, inspection of
the machine, performing the displaceable machines
stability test of Annex A, performing the building site saw
rigidity test of Annex B and relevant functional testing of
the machine.
Holes for fixing the
machine on the operating
floor are provided on the
machine frame. Instruction
for fixing the machine is
stated in the user manual.
Hazard of break up during operation
The saw blade guards above the machine table shall be
manufactured from either:
a) steel having an ultimate tensile strength of at least 350
N mm
-2
and a wall thickness of at least 1,5 mm;
b) light alloy with characteristics in accordance with Table
3;
c) polycarbonate with a wall thickness of at least 3 mm or
other plastic material passing the test given in Annex
H.
The saw blade guard below the table shall be
Saw blade guard above the
table is made of 3mm thick
polycarbonate.
