EN 15503:2009+A2:2015 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the safety requirements and their verification for the design an
39、d construction of hand-held combustion engine powered and back-pack combustion engine powered, garden vacuums and garden blower/vacuums with or without shredding means and garden blowers, designed for one operator only. In addition, it specifies the type of information on safe working practices (inc
40、luding residual risks) to be provided by the manufacturer. Throughout this European Standard the term machine is used to mean all the types of garden blowers and vacuums covered by it. This European Standard deals, with all hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to these machines when the
41、y are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see Clause 4), except for: vibration of backpack machines; structural integrity for blowers and blower vacuums; strength for harnesses and back-pack supports. This European Standard is not applicable to: walk-behind, hand-
42、guided (support-wheeled) and ride-on machines; mains driven and battery powered blowers and vacuums of combinations thereof; NOTE EN 60335-1 1 and IEC 60335-2-100 2 give the safety requirements for mains driven blowers and blower vacuums, vacuum cleaners for household and industrial use. This Europe
43、an Standard is not applicable to machines which are manufactured before the date of its publication as EN. 2 Normative references !The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
