16、4 and 5 of the previous issue and the addition of jewellers screwdrivers; c) some rationalization of screwdriver sizes has been made. This standard supersedes BS2559-1:1971, BS2559-2:1973, BS2559-4:1973 and BS2559-5:1974, which are now withdrawn. NOTEBS 2559-3 will be replaced by a European Standard

17、 on insulated tools, in due course. The illustrations in this standard are examples only and are not intended to affect manufacturers designs. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct appli

18、cation. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i to iv, pages1to 30, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date)
