Part 2-19: Particular requirements for jointers
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This consolidated version of the official IEC Standard and its amendment has been
prepared for user convenience.
IEC 60745-2-19 edition 1.1 contains the first edition (2005) [documents 61F/582A/FDIS
and 61F/597/RVD] and its amendment 1 (2010) [documents 116/36/FDIS and 116/44/RVD].
A vertical line in the margin shows where the base publication has been modified by
amendment 1. Additions and deletions are displayed in red, with deletions being struck
through.

International Standard IEC 60745-2-19 has been prepared by subcommittee 61F: Safety of
hand-held motor-operated electric tools, of IEC technical committee 61: Safety of household
and similar electrical appliances.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with the latest edition of IEC 60745-1, Hand-held
motor-operated electric tools – Safety – Part 1: General requirements, and its amendments.
It was established on the basis of the third edition (2001) of that standard.
NOTE 1 When “Part 1” is mentioned in this standard, it refers to IEC 60745-1.
This part 2 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses of IEC 60745-1, so as to
convert that publication into the IEC standard: Safety requirements for electric strapping tools.
When a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this part 2, that subclause applies
as far as is reasonable. When this standard states “addition”, “modification” or “replacement”,
the relevant text in Part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
NOTE 2 The following numbering system is used:
– subclauses, tables and figures that are numbered starting from 101 are additional to those in Part 1;
– additional annexes are lettered AA, BB, etc.

NOTE 3 In this standard, the following print types are used:
– requirements: in roman type;
– test specifications: in italic type;
– notes: in smaller roman type.
Words in bold in the text are defined in Clause 3. When a definition concerns an adjective, the adjective and the
associated noun are also in bold.
The committee has decided that the contents of the base publication and its amendments will
remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under
"http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will
be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
IMPORTANT – The “colour inside” logo on the cover page of this publication indicates
that it contains colours which are considered to be useful for the correct understanding
of its contents. Users should therefore print this publication using a colour printer.

Additional subclauses:
19.101 Disc cutter guard
A jointer shall be provided with a guard that automatically retracts to the closed position
when not in use. There shall be no provision for locking the guard in the open position. The
guard shall be so constructed that it stays in contact with the work piece when the tool is
retracted, or when released from its full open position, it shall retract to its fully closed
position.
Compliance is checked by inspection, and by the following tests:
One sample of the tool is to be conditioned by cycling the guard from the fully closed position
to the maximum open working position and then releasing for 50 000 cycles at a rate not less
than 10 cycles per minute.
Following the cycling, the tool is oriented with the weight of the tool in a direction causing the
guard to open. The disc cutter shall not be accessible to a straight edge applied perpendicular
to the disc cutter.
The sample or a second sample at the manufacturers option is to then be conditioned by
making 50 plunge cuts into soft wood that has been stored indoors for 72 h prior to the
+5
sawing. The tool is then conditioned for 24 h in a relative humidity of (90 ) % and at a
−0
temperature of (32 ± 2) °C.
The tool need not be conditioned by wood cutting if the accumulation of saw dust will not
affect the closure of the guard.
Following conditioning, the guard is to be operated through one complete cycle and the tool is
oriented with the weight of the tool in a direction causing the guard to open. The disc cutter
shall not be accessible to a straight edge applied perpendicular to the disc cutter.
19.102 Handles
Jointers shall be provided with at least two handles. The motor casing may be considered as
a handle, if suitably shaped.
Compliance is checked by inspection.
19.103 Disc cutter changing
Provision shall be made to enable the operator to replace the disc cutter without difficulty.
Examples of such designs are: spindle lock, flats on the outer flange or other means
recommended by the manufacturer.
Compliance is checked by inspection.
20 Mechanical strength
This clause of Part 1 is applicable, except as follows:
20.3 This clause of Part 1 is applicable for all parts except the disc cutter and guard. The
disc cutter and guard shall be evaluated in accordance with 20.101.

60745-2-19 © IEC:2005+A1:2010 – 9 –
20.101 A jointer guard shall have adequate mechanical strength.
Compliance is checked by the following tests, for which a separate sample may be used.
A jointer retracting guard shall withstand the tool being dropped one time from a height of 1 m
onto a concrete surface. The tool shall be oriented to achieve the most adverse affect on the
guard.
Following the impact, the guard is to be operated through one complete cyc
