Foreword
The text of the International Standard IEC 60745-2-11:2003, prepared by SC 61F (transformed into
IEC TC 116, Safety of hand-held motor-operated electric tools), together with the common modifications
prepared by the Technical Committee CENELEC TC 61F (transformed into TC 116) was submitted to the
formal vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 60745-2-11 on 2003-02-01.
A number of amendments to EN 60745-2-11 have since been voted on and published as amendments
A11, A1 and A12.
A further draft amendment (FprAD) including improvements to the vibration test code was submitted to
the Unique Acceptance Procedure.
The combined texts were approved by CENELEC as a new edition of EN 60745-2-11 on 2010-02-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 60745-2-11:2003 + A11:2007 + A1:2009 + A12:2009.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN and CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights.
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) 2011-02-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2013-02-01
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 CEN and CENELEC by the
European Commission and the European Free Trade Association and supports the essential health and
safety requirements of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/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 reciprocating 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.
This Part 2-11 is to be used in conjunction with EN 60745-1:2009. When this European Standard states
"addition", "modification" or "replacement", the relevant text in Part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
Subclauses and figures which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered starting from 101.
Annexes, subclauses, tables and figures which are additional to those in IEC 60745-2-11 are prefixed “Z”.

This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows:
6.1.2.4 Modification:
Reciprocating saws are suspended in such a way as to correspond to normal use.
6.1.2.5 Modification:
Reciprocating saws are tested at no-load.
6.2.4.2 Location of the measurement
Addition:
Figures Z101 and Z102 show the positions for different saws.
6.2.6.3 Operating conditions
Modification:
Reciprocating saws are tested under load according to the conditions shown in Tables Z101, Z102 and
Z103.
Jig saws are tested sawing both board and sheet metal. Sabre saws are tested cutting board and wooden
beams.
Sabre and jig saws with speed setting devices shall be adjusted to the settings to cut the work piece
material required in the test.
Table Z101 - Test conditions for sabre and jig saws cutting board
Orientation For jig saws:
Cutting a horizontal piece of chipboard (P2 in accordance with EN 312) 38 mm thick
with a minimum length of 500 mm and a width of 600 mm.
The board shall be supported on resilient material and fixed by screws, clamps, air
cylinders or the like to a test rig.
For sabre saws:
Cutting a vertical piece of chipboard (P2 in accordance with EN 312) 38 mm thick
with a minimum length of 500 mm and a width of 600 mm.
The board shall be supported on resilient material and fixed vertically by screws,
clamps, air cylinders or the like to a test rig.
In all cases, the board excess end shall be 250 mm from the clamp and shall be
readjusted at the beginning of each series of tests, which consists of five test
cycles.
Tool bit/settings New saw blade as specified for sawing chipboard.
Pendulum systems, if any, being set at maximum. For sabre saws, the guide plate
shall be fitted.
Feed force For jig saws:
The horizontal feed force (force in direction of the cut) applied to the tool shall be
35 N ± 5 N. Excessive gripping force shall be avoided.
The guide plate shall be in contact with the work piece during the cut applying a
force just great enough to ensure this.
NOTE 1  Methods to determine the feed force are e.g. using a scale, applying a weight on a string
parallel to the workpiece surface via a pulley.
NOTE 2  Usually, the downward force in addition to the weight of the tool to keep the guide plate of a jig
saw in contact with the workpiece is between 50 N and 100 N.
For sabre saws:
The vertical feed force (force in direction of the cut) applied to the tool in addition to
its weight shall be 40 N ± 5 N. The feed force shall be determined e.g. by means of
a scale and shall be recorded. Excessive gripping force shall be avoided.
The guide plate shall be in contact with the work piece during the cut applying a
force just great enough to ensure this.
NOTE 3  Usually, the horizontal force to keep the guide plate of a sabre saw in contact with the
workpiece is between 50 N and 100 N.
Test cycle Cutting a 30 mm wide strip across the 600 mm width of the chipboard.
Measurement starts when the saw blade enters the chipboard and stops when the
saw blade leaves the chipboard.
