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 document 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).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent
rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had received notice of (a)
patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that
this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at
www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 39, Machine tools, Subcommittee SC 4,
Woodworking machines, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical
Committee CEN/TC 142, Woodworking machines - Safety, in accordance with the Agreement on technical
cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 19085-13:2020), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— the Scope has been revised to specify that machines are intended for continuous production use;
— machines with all saw blades spindles mounted below the workpiece support/level only have been
covered and their exclusion deleted from Scope;
— the list of significant hazards has been moved to a new Annex A and subsequent clauses and annexes
have been renumbered;
— subclause 6.2 has been updated and a new full noise test code has been added in Annex F.
This document is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 19085-1:2021.

ISO 19085-13:2025(en)
Introduction
The ISO 19085 series provides technical safety requirements for the design and construction of
woodworking machinery, as well as for the content of the relevant instruction handbook. It concerns
designers, manufacturers, suppliers and importers of the machines specified in the Scope.
This document is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100:2010.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the market
players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organisations, market surveillance etc.).
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in the case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events are
covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
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 curtain described in 5.9.3.1.5 as part of the relevant anti-splinter system is patented. However, the
patent holder is willing to negotiate licences with other parties on a non-discriminatory basis on reasonable
terms and conditions, and has provided ISO with the relevant Patent Statement and Licensing Declaration.
The full set of requirements for a particular type of woodworking machine are those given in the part of the
ISO 19085 series applicable to that type, together with the relevant requirements from ISO 19085-1:2021, to
the extent specified in the Scope of the applicable part of the ISO 19085 series.
As far as possible, the safety requirements of parts of the ISO 19085 series refer to the relevant subclauses
of ISO 19085-1:2021. Each part contains replacements and additions to the common requirements given in
ISO 19085-1:2021.
All parts of the ISO 19085 series have the same structure, so that reference to ISO 19085-1:2021 is made
always and only from and to the same subclause number at the last indent level.
Clauses 1 to 3 are specific to each part and, therefore are distinct from ISO 19085-1:2021, Clauses 1 to 3.
For Clauses 4 to 7 and the annexes, each subclause in ISO 19085-1:2021 is cited as either:
— confirmed as a whole;
— confirmed with additions;
— excluded entirely; or
— replaced with specific text.
vi
ISO 19085-13:2025(en)
This is indicated by one of the following possible statements:
— “ISO 19085-1:2021, [subclause/Annex], applies”;
— “ISO 19085-1:2021, [subclause/Annex], applies with the following additions.” or “ISO 19085-1:2021,
[subclause/Annex], applies with the following additions, subdivided into further specific subclauses.”;
— “ISO 19085-1:2021, [subclause/Annex], does not apply.”;
— “ISO 19085-1:2021, [subclause/Annex], is replaced by the following text.” or “ISO 19085-1:2021,
[subclause/Annex], is replaced by the following text, subdivided into further specific subclauses.”.
Other subclauses and annexes specific to this document are indicated by the introductory sentence:
“Subclause/Annex specific to this document.”.

3.1
multi-blade rip sawing machine
machine designed to be used with circular saw blades at different positions on the spindles which are fixed
in position during cutting, where the workpiece is fed to the tools by an integrated power feed, i.e. rollers or
chain conveyor
Note 1 to entry: The saw blades can be mounted on one or more saw spindles which can be capable of vertical
adjustment. The saw blades can be capable of axial adjustment either relative to the spindle or together with the
spindle. The saw blade spindles can be mounted above or below the workpiece support or both.
Note 2 to entry: The cutting can be “against the feed” or “climb cutting” (see ISO 19085-1:2021, 3.14, 3.15 and Figure 1)
or a combination of both.
Note 3 to entry: Examples of machines configurations as of feed technology and spindles number and position are
shown in Figure 1:
— saw blades spindles:
— single-spindle machines
— with the spindle above the workpiece level are shown in Figure 1 a), b) and c),
— with the spindle below the workpiece level in Figure 1 g) and h);
— double-spindle machines with spindles one above and one below the workpiece level are shown in Figure 1 d),
e) and f);
— workpiece support and integrated feed
— by feed rollers shown in Figure 1 a), d), g) and h),
— by chain conveyor in Figure 1 b), c) and e),
— by a combination of the two in Figure 1 f).
