-      device to tilt the main saw blade and scoring saw blade for angled cutting;
-      device for scoring;
-      device for grooving with milling tool with a width not exceeding 20 mm;
-      demountable power feed unit;

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

The committee responsible for this document is ISO/TC 39, Machine tools, Subcommittee SC 4
Woodworking machines.
This document is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 19085-1, which gives requirements
common to different machine types.
A list of all parts in the ISO 19085 series can be found on the ISO website.
ISO 19085-5:2017(E)
Introduction
The ISO 19085 series of International Standards provides technical safety requirements for the design
and construction of woodworking machinery. It concerns designers, manufacturers, suppliers and
importers of the machines specified in the Scope. It also includes a list of informative items that the
manufacturer will need to give to the user.
This document is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events
are covered are indicated in the Scope of this part of ISO 19085.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or
type-B standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of
the other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of
this type-C standard.
The full set of requirements for a particular type of woodworking machine are those given in the part
of ISO 19085 applicable to that type, together with the relevant requirements from ISO 19085-1:2017, to
the extent specified in the Scope of the applicable part of ISO 19085.
As far as possible, in parts of ISO 19085 other than ISO 19085-1:2017, safety requirements are referenced
to the relevant sections of ISO 19085-1:2017, to avoid repetition and reduce their length. The other parts
contain replacements and additions to the common requirements given in ISO 19085-1:2017.
Thus, Clauses 5, 6, 7 and 8, with their subclauses and the annexes of this part can either
— confirm as a whole,
— confirm with additions,
— exclude in total, or
— replace with specific text,
the corresponding subclauses or annexes of ISO 19085-1:2017.
This interrelation is indicated in the first paragraph of each subclause or annex right after the title by
one of the following statements:
— “This subclause of ISO 19085-1:2017 applies.”;
— “This subclause of ISO 19085-1:2017 applies with the following additions.”, or “This subclause of
ISO 19085-1:2017 applies with the following additions, subdivided into further specific subclauses.”;
— “This subclause of ISO 19085-1:2017 does not apply.”;
— “This subclause of ISO 19085-1:2017 is replaced by the following text.”, or “This subclause of
ISO 19085-1:2017 is replaced by the following text, subdivided into further specific subclauses.”.
Specific subclauses and annexes in this part of ISO 19085 without correspondent in ISO 19085-1:2017
are indicated by the introductory sentence: “Subclause (or annex) specific to this part of ISO 19085.”
Clauses 1, 2, 4 replace the correspondent clauses of ISO 19085-1:2017, with no need for indication since
they are specific to each part of the series.
NOTE Requirements for tools are given in EN 847-1:2013 and EN 847-2:2013.

Woodworking machines — Safety —
Part 5:
Dimension saws
1 Scope
This document gives the safety requirements and measures for stationary and displaceable dimension
saws, hereinafter referred to as “machines”, designed to cut wood and material with similar physical
characteristics to wood.
NOTE 1 For the definitions of stationary and displaceable machines, see ISO 19085-1:2017, 3.4 and 3.5.
It deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events as listed in Clause 4, relevant to
the machines, when operated, adjusted and maintained as intended and under the conditions foreseen
by the manufacturer including reasonably foreseeable misuse. Also, transport, assembly, dismantling,
disabling and scrapping phases have been taken into account.
NOTE 2 For relevant but not significant hazards, e.g. sharp edges of the machine frame, see ISO 12100.
It is also applicable to machines fitted with one or more of the following devices/additional working
units, whose hazards have been dealt with:
— device for the main saw blade and scoring saw blade to be raised and lowered;
— device to tilt the main saw blade and scoring saw blade for angled cutting;
— device for scoring;
— device for grooving with milling tool with a width not exceeding 20 mm;
— demountable power feed unit;
— post-formed edge pre-cutting unit;
— power-operated sliding table;
— workpiece clamping.
NOTE 3 Dimension saws are used for ripping, cross cutting, dimensioning and grooving.
It is not applicable to machines intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres or to machines
manufactured prior to the date of its publication.
