Garden equipment - Pedestrian controlled lawn aerators and scarifiers - Safety
This European Standard specifies safety requirements and their verification for the design and construction of pedestrian controlled internal combustion engine powered lawn aerators and scarifiers which are designed for re-generating lawns by, for instance, combing out grass, thatch and moss or cutting vertically into the lawn face using tines which rotate about a horizontal axis. It describes methods of elimination or reduction of hazards arising from their use. In addition, it specifies the type of information to be provided by the manufacturer on safe working practices.
Throughout this document, the term "machine" applies to those machines known as aerators, scarifiers, corers, lawn rakes or grass rakes.
It does not apply to:
- aerators/scarifiers made from a machine falling within the scope of EN 709:1997+A4:2009 when fitted with an aerating/scarifying implement;
- non-powered aerators;

- those aerators which cut into the soil by means of a reciprocating motion or by water pressure.
It deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to scarifiers and aerators, when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). Environmental hazards have not been considered in this document.
This document is not applicable to aerators/scarifiers which are manufactured before the date of its publication.

b) Cone B Key 1 horizontal plane Figure 2 — Test cones (see 5.4.1 and 5.4.2.2) It is not necessary to test the accessibility of hot parts while they are hot. Allow the hot parts to cool before using the cone(s). 5.4.2 Test equipment and method of test 5.4.2.1 Temperature measuring equipment The temperature measuring equipment for hot surfaces shall have an accuracy of ±
2 °C. 5.4.2.2 Method of test The test shall be conducted in the shade. The power source shall be operated at its maximum operating engine speed until the surface temperatures stabilize. Identify the hot surface area(s) on the power source exhaust system and guard. Temperatures shall be determined by correcting the observed temperature by the difference between the specified ambient and test ambient temperature. Corrected temperature (°C) = observed temperature (°C) – ambient temperature (°C) + 20 (°C) SIST EN 13684:2018
¶ l00 mm between the identified hot area and the nearest control, Cone B in Figure 2 shall be used. For Cone A, with the axis of the cone at all positions between 0° and 180° to the horizontal and with the nose or point of the cone in a downward to horizontal direction, move the cone towards the hot surface. Cone A shall not be moved in an upward direction. Cone B shall be moved in all directions. When moving the cone(s), determine if contact is made with the hot surface area(s) by the cone tip or conical surface of the cone. 5.4.3 Test acceptance The tip or conical surface of Cone A or Cone B shall not be able to make contact with a hot surface area greater than 10 cm2. 5.5 Protection from exhaust fumes Engine exhaust, shall not be directed towards the operator. Compliance shall be checked by inspection. 5.6 Pressurized components Hydraulic systems and their components shall comply with the relevant parts of EN ISO 4413. Pressurized hoses, lines and components shall be located or shielded so that in the event of rupture the fluid cannot be discharged directly on to the operator when in the operating position. If stored energy devices are used within the machine there shall be a safe means of de-energizing provided together with instructions for its correct use. For hydraulic devices these shall be according to EN ISO 4413. Compliance shall be checked by inspection. 5.7 Liquid spillage When filled to the maximum according to the manufacturer's instructions liquid containers, batteries, fuel systems, oil reservoirs, and coolant systems shall be constructed to prevent spillage for 1 min whilst the machine is tilted at 20° lateral and 30° longitudinal. Weeping at vent systems shall not be considered as spillage. Compliance shall be checked by inspection and functional test. 5.8 Controls 5.8.1 General Controls shall be located in such a way that they only require a range of movements within the anthropometric dimensions given for the operator zone in Figure 1. The following controls are exempt from this requirement: — controls for setting the depth of penetration of the tines; — catcher discharge arrangements; — controls for engine starting. The operating range of controls that do not require sustained manual actuation may be extended by allowing the operator’s trunk, when standing with both feet on the ground, to articulate within the confines of the operator zone (e.g. lean forward until contacting the handle in any of the operating positions).
