General Information
Relations
Overview
EN IEC 62841-4-7:2022/A11:2022 is a CLC/CENELEC amendment to the Part 4-7 series of the IEC/EN 62841 family addressing safety requirements for pedestrian controlled walk-behind lawn scarifiers and aerators. It is intended to be used together with EN 62841-1:2015 (General requirements) and adapts the general Part 1 requirements to the specific hazards and characteristics of walk‑behind scarifiers and aerators. The amendment A11 updates scope, normative references, marking and instructions, noise/vibration measurement, battery tool controls and conformity linkage to EU legislation.
Key Topics
- Scope and conformity: Confirms the document covers relevant hazards for machines in scope and links compliance to essential requirements of the EU Machinery Directive (informative Annex ZZ).
- Normative references: Updates references to related standards (e.g., EN 62841‑1:2015, IEC/EN plugs and socket standards, acoustic and vibration test methods).
- Marking & instructions:
- Machine mass must include a supply cord of at least 10 m where applicable.
- Emissions information must include measured noise and vibration data and recommended protective measures.
- Noise measurement and reporting:
- A‑weighted emission sound pressure level LpA and its uncertainty K must be reported when LpA exceeds 70 dB(A); if ≤70 dB(A) this must be stated.
- A‑weighted guaranteed sound power level LWA must be declared.
- Operators should be recommended to wear hearing protection.
- Vibration reporting:
- Declared vibration total values and uncertainties must be provided; the standard specifically notes the 2.5 m/s2 threshold for reporting statements.
- User guidance must state that measured emission values are test‑method dependent and can be used for comparative assessment and preliminary exposure estimation.
- Battery safety (Annex K updates):
- Isolation device: Integral-battery machines must include a device that disconnects at least one battery pole from the serviceable region, shows unambiguous state indication, and resists accidental reconnection.
- Disabling device: Machines with integral batteries or detachable battery packs >5 kg must provide a disabling device that prevents tine and traction operation when removed; lighter detachable packs may also use such a device if identified accordingly.
Applications
- Manufacturers and product designers of pedestrian walk‑behind scarifiers and aerators for design, labeling and user-instruction compliance.
- Test laboratories and conformity assessment bodies performing noise and vibration measurement and verification.
- Safety engineers, technical documentation authors and regulatory compliance teams preparing CE marking evidence and declaring conformity with the Machinery Directive.
- National standards bodies and procurement specialists specifying safe horticultural machinery.

purpose of this document referred to simply as tools) which could come within the scope of this document;
Part 2, 3 or 4: 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.
The Part 4-7 is used in conjunction with EN 62841-1:2015 and its amendments.
The Part 4-7 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in EN 62841-1:2015, so as to convert it into
the European Standard: Particular requirements for pedestrian controlled walk-behind lawn scarifiers and
aerators.
Where a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in the Part 4-7, that subclause applies as far as relevant.
When this document states “addition”, “modification” or “replacement”, the relevant text in Part 1 is to be adapted
accordingly.
The following print types are used:
— requirements; in roman type;
— test specifications: in italic type;
— notes: in smaller roman type.
The terms defined in Clause 3 are printed in bold typeface.
Subclauses, notes, tables and figures which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered starting from 101.
Clauses, subclauses, notes, tables, figures and annexes which are additional to those in IEC 62841-4-7:2022
are prefixed “Z”.
This document follows the overall requirements of EN ISO 12100.
This document has been prepared under a Standardization Request given to CENELEC by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s)
/ Regulation(s).
For the relationship with EU Directive(s) / Regulation(s), see informative Annex ZZ, which is an integral part of
this document.
Compliance with the clauses of Part 1 together with Part 4-7 provides one means of conforming with the
essential health and safety requirements of the Directive concerned.
1 Modification to Clause 1, “Scope”
Add the following to the existing Clause 1:
“This document covers all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events relevant for machines
covered by this document.
NOTE Z101 Essential requirements not mentioned in Table ZZ.1 are deemed to be not applicable, because the
corresponding hazards are either not relevant for machines covered by this document or do not require specific action by
the designer.”
2 Modifications to Clause 2, “Normative references”
Replace the normative reference “IEC 62841-1:2014” with the following in Clause 2 and throughout the text:
EN 62841-1:2015, Electric motor-operated hand-held tools, transportable tools and lawn and garden
machinery - Safety - Part 1: General requirements
Replace the normative reference “IEC 60884 (all parts)” with the following in Clause 2 and throughout the text:

Replace the existing 8.3 with the following:
“8.3 Replacement of the sixth dash:
— the mass of the machine in kg. For this requirement, the mass of the machine includes the mass of a
supply cord with a length not less than 10 m, if any, in addition to the items specified in 5.17.”
Replace the text and NOTE after 8.14.2 c) 108) with the following:
“8.14.2 Za) Replacement:
Emissions:

in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
5) A warning:
— that the vibration and noise emissions during actual use of the machine can differ from the declared
total value depending on the ways in which the machine is used; and
— of the need to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of
exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the
times when the machine is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).”
4 Modifications to Annex I, “Measurement of noise and vibration emissions”
Replace the title of Annex I with the following:
“Annex I
(normative)
Measurement of noise and vibration emissions”

5 Modifications to Annex K, “Battery tools and battery packs”
Replace the NOTE 301 in K.21.18 with the following normative text:
“K.21.18.Z101 Isolation device
Machines with an integral battery shall be equipped with an isolation device to prevent the risk of injury from
mechanical hazards during servicing or user maintenance.
An isolation device shall
— provide disconnection of at least one pole of the battery from the serviceable region of the machine;
— be equipped with an unambiguous indication of the state of the disconnection device which corresponds to
each position of its manual control (actuator);
— be provided with protection against accidental reconnection.
NOTE 1 Examples of methods to achieve this disconnection include removable jumpers, integral batteries that can be
disconnected for servicing or user maintenance, or an electromechanical power switch (operator presence control) with
a direct mechanical link between the actuator and the contact.
