7、ights reserved iiiForeword 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 sub
8、ject 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 (I
9、EC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical commit
10、tees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be
11、 held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 20957-7 was prepared by CEN (as EN 957-7) and was adopted, under a special “fast-track procedure”, by Technical Committee ISO/TC 83, Sports and recreational equipment, in parallel with its approval by the ISO member bodies.

22、e read in conjunction with it. This part of EN 957 is applicable to stationary training equipment type rowing machines (type 7), hereinafter referred to as rowing machines, within the classes S and H and class A regarding accuracy. If accessories are provided with the rowing machine for the performa
23、nce of additional exercises these are subject to the requirements of EN 957-1 and any other specific requirements of the appropriate part of this standard. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.

29、of the piece of equipment the following requirements shall apply as appropriate. 5.2 External construction 5.2.1 Squeeze, shear and reciprocating points within the accessible area The distance between movable parts and adjacent movable or rigid parts shall be at least 25 mm if relevant for fingers,
30、otherwise it shall be at least 60 mm. Required stops are excluded (if the user is not put at risk). Accessible stops shall each have a minimum surface of 400 mm 2 . Stops which compress shall each produce a surface of 400 mm 2when compressed with a pressure of 90 N/cm 2 . The 60 mm does not apply wh
