DIN EN 14619:2015-06EN 14619:2015 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard applies to kic
26、k scooters which can only be propelled by the muscular activity of a user with a body mass of more than 20 kg and less than 100 kg. It specifies safety requirements, test methods, marking and information supplied by the manufacturer to reduce the risk of injuries to both third parties and the user d
27、uring normal use. Kick scooters for use by users of less than 20 kg do not belong to the scope of this European Standard. They are toys. It should be noted that there are two types of scooters for the weight group 20 kg to 50 kg those classified as sports equipment for use on public roads and path w
28、ays (this European Standard) and those classified as toys for domestic use (according to EN 71-1). 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

38、ements do not have to be considered if the customer acts intentionally close to and directly on the component and hurts himself. Then the injury would be caused by his own strength and could be stopped by himself immediately. 4.3.2.2.2 Class A The distance between accessible moveable parts shall be
39、either smaller than 5 mm or wider than 18 mm in any position. This requirement does not apply to the wheels/spokes/wheel support system or the braking/rear brake system, if provided. 4.3.2.2.3 Class B a) The space between moving elements, capable of injuring fingers, shall also allow a 12 mm rod to
40、be inserted if it allows a 5 mm rod to be inserted. b) Accessible openings in moving elements capable of shearing a finger shall not allow the insertion of a 5 mm rod.
