CEI EN IEC 62841-4-3 PDF

This document applies to the design of pedestrian controlled walk-behind

– cylinder lawnmowers;

and

– rotary lawnmowers

equipped with

– metallic cutting means; and/or

– rigid non-metallic cutting means; and/or

– non-metallic cutting means with one or more cutting elements pivotally mounted on a generally circular drive unit, where these cutting elements rely on centrifugal force to achieve cutting, and have a kinetic energy for each single cutting element of greater than 10 J.

NOTE 101 Machines that have non-metallic cutting means and a kinetic energy for each single cutting element of less than or equal to 10 J are considered to be lawn trimmers.

This document does not apply to

– robotic lawnmowers;

– remote-controlled lawnmowers;

– flail mowers or flail-type attachments;

– scissors type lawnmowers;

– grassland mowers;

– sickle bar mowers;

– towed/semi-mounted grass-cutting machines;

– scrub-clearing machines;

– lawn trimmers and lawn edge trimmers;

– lawn edgers;

– grass trimmers;

– brush cutters;

– brush saws;

– agricultural mowers;

– trailing seat/sulky units;

– ride-on machines;

– non-powered lawnmowers;

– combustion engine powered lawnmowers;

– hybrid and fuel cell powered machines and associated charging systems; and

– garden tractors or their attachments.

NOTE 102 Robotic lawnmowers are covered by IEC 60335-2-107, and will be covered by a future part of IEC 62841.

NOTE 103 Lawn trimmers and lawn edge trimmers are covered by IEC 60335-2-91.

NOTE 104 Lawn trimmers, lawn edge trimmers, grass trimmers, brush cutters and brush saws will be covered by a future part of IEC 62841.

NOTE 105 Lawn edgers will be covered by a future part of IEC 62841.
