Start of validity This standard takes effect on 1 April 2010. 2 National foreword This standard includes safety requirements within the meaning of the Gerte- und Produktsicherheitsgesetz (GPSG
5、) (German Equipment and Product Safety Act). This standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 144 “Tractors and machinery for agriculture and forestry” (Secretariat: AFNOR, France), Working Group WG 7 “Garden equipment” (Secretariat: BSI, United Kingdom). The responsible German body inv
6、olved in its preparation was the Normenausschuss Eisen-, Blech- und Metallwaren (Hardware, Tinware and Metal Products Standards Committee), Technical Committee NA 020-00-11-05 UA Vertikutierer. This standard contains specifications meeting the essential requirements set out in Annex I of the “Machin
7、ery Directive”, Directive 98/37/EC, (valid until 28 December 2009) and the “revised Machinery Directive”, Directive 2006/42/EC, which takes effect on 29 December 2009, and which apply to pedestrian controlled lawn aerators and scarifiers that are either first placed on the market or commissioned wit
8、hin the EEA. This standard serves to facilitate proof of compliance with the essential requirements of the directives. Note: Amendment 3 was published as E DIN EN 13684/A1:2007-04 (draft standard). Amendments This standard differs from DIN EN 13684:2009-10 as follows: a) The term 3.26 “tine assembly
9、” has been added. b) Specifications relating to the impact test and guard of the tines have been rendered more precise. c) Specifications relating to the Kraft paper used as target panel for the operator area have been modified. d) The figures showing the test rig (6.2), strength of tine assembly (7
10、) and side guarding of tines (9) have been modified. e) Text related to subclause 6.2.2 “Warnings” and Annex A “Safety signs and symbols” has been editorially revised.

In a
36、ddition, the machine shall be designed according to the principles of EN ISO 12100 for hazards relevant but not significant, which are not dealt with by this document (e.g. sharp edges on the outside of the machine). 5.2 %Power driven components and the tines catcher discharge arrangements; controls
37、 for engine starting with disengaged tines, or the tine enclosure shall, during normal operation, prevent the operators feet coming into contact with the tines; compliance shall be verified by the test of 5.10.2. The operating range of controls that do not require sustained manual actuation may be e
38、xtended by allowing the operators trunk, when standing with both feet on the ground, to articulate within the confines of the operator zone (e.g. lean forward until contacting the handle in any of the operating positions). The control for lifting the tines off the ground for transportation reasons i
39、s regarded to be such a control. If the control for lifting the tines off the ground for transportation is foot operated it shall be 450 mm in front of the handle measured horizontally from the rear most point of the handle. If the handle is adjustable the 450 mm dimension shall apply for all positi
40、ons of the handle. or b) the tines shall stop within 3 s of the operator presence control being released; or c) the tine enclosure shall prevent inadvertent foot contact by the operator. Compliance shall be checked for a) by inspection, for b) by measurement and for c) by the foot probe test of 5.12
41、.2. %For the prevention of inadvertent foot contact, compliance shall be checked by applying the foot probe test of 5.12.2 under the following additional conditions: the probe shall be applied within 60 either side of the designated starting position of the machine; DIN EN 13684:2010-04 EN 13684:200
42、4+A3:2009 (E) 17 the 60 angles shall have their vertices at the centre of rotation of the engine starting pulley. or b) the construction of the machine shall not allow the foot probe to enter the path of the tine assembly, checked by the foot probe test of 5.12.2, with the machine or tine assembly s
43、et to all working heights. Compliance shall be checked by inspection and measurement and by the foot probe test of 5.12. engine cooling system (applicable only for combustion engine); engine exhaust system (applicable only for combustion engine); cutting system; vibrating surfaces. EN ISO 11688-1:19
44、98 gives general technical information on widely recognised technical rules and means to be followed in the design of machines with low-noise emission. For combustion engine driven machines special care shall be taken in the design of exhaust system and the selection of the silencer. NOTE EN ISO 116
45、91:1995 and EN ISO 11820:1996 can be used for the testing of the silencer. DIN EN 13684:2010-04 EN 13684:2004+A3:2009 (E) 22 5.16.1.2 Noise reduction by information If after taking all possible technical measures for reducing noise at the design stage a manufacturer considers that further protection
46、 of the operator is necessary, then the instruction handbook shall: recommend the use of low-noise operating modes, and/or limited time of operation; give a warning of noise level and recommend the use of ear protection. 5.16.2 Verification of requirements on noise Noise measurement For the determin
47、ation of the sound power level and of the emission sound pressure level at the operators position the measurement methods given in annex C shall be used. 5.17 Vibration 5.17.1 Reduction by design and protective measures The machine shall be designed to generate a vibration level as low as practicabl
48、e. The main sources causing vibration are: oscillating forces from the engine; tine assembly; unbalanced moving parts; impact in gears, bearings and other mechanisms; interaction between operator, machine and ground being worked; machine design related to mobility; travelling surface, speed, tyre pr

NOTE 2 Besides the vibration reduction of the source, technical measures to isolate the vibration source from the handle may be used, when appropriate, such as isolators and resonating masses. 5.17.2 Reduction by information After taking possible technical measures for vibra
