EN 1218-1:1999

EN 1218-1:1999 is a standard published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). Its full title is "Safety of woodworking machines - Tenoning machines - Part 1: Single end tenoning machines with sliding table". This standard covers: This European Standard specifies the requirements and/or measures to remove the hazards and limit the risks on single end tenoning machines with sliding table, hereinafter referred to as "machines", designed to cut solid wood, chipboard, fibreboard, plywood and also these materials where they are covered with plastic laminate or edgings. This European Standard covers all the hazards relevant to this machine. These hazards are listed in [clause] 4. This European standard does not cover the hazards related to Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) as stated in the EMC directive 89/336 EEC dated 03.05.89. This standard does not apply to : a) machines where the tenon is produced only by means of saw blades; b) machines where the design speed of any tool spindle exceeds 6000 min-1; c) machines where the average sliding table feed speed in either direction exceeds 25 m min-1 + 5%; d) combined machines used for tenoning (see EN 940 : 1997); e) tenoning attachments on a vertical spindle moulding machine (see EN 848-1 : 1997). NOTE : Single and double end tenoning machines fed by chain or chains are dealt with in prEN 1218-2. Single end tenoning machines where the tenon is produced only by means of saw blades are dealt with in prEN 1218-3. This European Standard is primarily applicable to machines which are manufactured after the date of issue of his standard.
