Foreword
The text of document 61F/643/FDIS, future edition 4 of IEC 60745-2-5, prepared by SC 61F,
Safety of hand-held motor-operated electric tools, of IEC TC 61, Safety of household and similar
electrical appliances, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote.
A draft amendment, prepared by the Technical Committee CENELEC TC 61F, Safety of
hand-held and transportable motor-operated electric tools, to bring the European Standard in line
with the essential health and safety requirements of the Machinery Directive, was submitted to the
formal vote.
The combined texts were approved by CENELEC as EN 60745-2-5 on 2006-11-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 60745-2-5:2003.
Main changes include: Clause 19: Mechanical hazards, clarifications in respect to the guarding;
editorial modifications in Annex AA, the addition of Annex M: Safety of working stands for
operation with hand-held motor-operated electric tools and editorial modifications to match with
EN 60745-1:2006.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2007-11-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2009-11-01
This standard is divided into two parts:
Part 1: General requirements which are common to most hand-held electric motor operated tools
(for the purpose of this standard referred to simply as tools) which could come within the
scope of this standard;
Part 2: Requirements for particular types of tools which either supplement or modify the
requirements given in Part 1 to account for the particular hazards and characteristics of
these specific tools.
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the
European Commission and the European Free Trade Association and covers essential health and
safety requirements of EC Directive 98/37/EC, amended by EC Directive 98/79/EC. See
Annex ZZ.
Compliance with the clauses of Part 1 together with this Part 2 provides one means of conforming
with the essential health and safety requirements of the Directive concerned.
CEN/TC 255 is producing standards for non-electric circular saws (EN 792-12).
Warning: Other requirements and other EC Directives can be applicable to the products falling
within the scope of this standard.
This standard follows the overall requirements of EN ISO 12100-1 and EN ISO 12100-2.

- 3 - EN 60745-2-5:2007
This Part 2-5 is to be used in conjunction with EN 60745-1:2006. When this standard states
"addition", "modification" or "replacement", the relevant text in Part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
Subclauses, tables and figures which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered starting from
101; additional annexes are lettered AA, BB, etc.
Subclauses, tables and figures which are additional to those in IEC 60745-2-5:2006 are prefixed
“Z”.
Annexes ZA and ZZ have been added by CENELEC.
NOTE In this standard the following print types are used:
- requirements proper; in roman type
- test specifications: in italic type;
- explanatory matter: in smaller roman type.

Cutting a horizontal piece of chipboard with minimum dimensions
Orientation
800 mm x 600 mm and a thickness depending on maximum cutting depth of
the circular saw
maximum cutting depth 40 mm: chipboard thickness 19 mm
maximum cutting depth > 40 mm: chipboard thickness 38 mm
The board shall be firmly fixed by screws or clamps to a test bench using

resonance in the frequency range that can influence the test result.
The board excess end shall be 250 mm from the clamped area and shall be
readjusted at the beginning of each series of tests.
Tool bit New blade as recommended by the manufacturer for cutting chipboard
Feed force Just sufficient to cut at a brisk pace. Equal force shall be applied to both
handles, if applicable. Excessive grip forces shall be avoided.
Test cycle One test cycle is given by cutting off one approximately 10 mm wide strip (set
by rip fence if available) across the 600 mm width of the chipboard.
The measurement starts when the blade enters the wood and finishes when
the blade leaves the wood.
