This series is divided into four parts:
Part 1: General requirements which are common to most hand-held electric motor operated tools (for the
purpose of this standard referred to simply as tools) which could come within the scope of this standard;
Part 2, 3 or 4: Requirements for particular types of tools which either supplement or modify the
requirements given in Part 1 to account for the particular hazards and characteristics of these specific
tools.
The Part 3-7 is to be used in conjunction with EN 62841-1:2015 and its amendments.
The Part 3-7 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in EN 62841-1:2015, so as to convert it
into the European Standard: Particular requirements for transportable wall saws.
Where a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in Part 3-7, that subclause applies as far as
relevant. When this standard states “addition”, “modification” or “replacement”, the relevant text in Part 1
is to be adapted accordingly.
The following print types are used:
— requirements: in roman type;
— test specifications: in italic type;
— notes: in smaller roman type.
The terms defined in Clause 3 are printed in bold typeface.
Subclauses, notes, tables and figures which are additional to those in Part 1 are numbered starting
from 101.
Clauses, subclauses, notes, tables, figures and annexes which are additional to those in
IEC 62841-3-7:2020 are prefixed “Z”.
This document follows the overall requirements of EN ISO 12100.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European Commission
and the European Free Trade Association and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).

“This clause of Part 1 is applicable, except as follows:
Replacement of the third paragraph:
The rated voltage is not more than 250 V for single-phase a.c. or d.c. tools, and 480 V for three-phase
a.c. tools.
Addition:
This document applies to transportable wall saws guided by a track guiding system intended for dry
cutting or to be connected to a liquid system for cutting concrete, stone or similar material by means of a
diamond wheel. The rated speed of the diamond wheel does not exceed a peripheral speed of 100 m/s
at rated capacity.
This document does not apply to transportable wall saws with a design that allows an automatic change
of the cutting direction without user intervention before any change of the cutting direction.
This document does not apply to transportable wall saws that employ hydraulic systems.
This document does not apply to hand-held cut-off machines.
NOTE 101 Hand-held cut-off machines will be covered by a future part of IEC 62841-2.
This document covers all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events relevant for tools
covered by this standard.
NOTE Z101 Essential requirements not mentioned in Table ZZ.1 are deemed to be not applicable, because the
corresponding hazards are either not relevant for tools covered by this standard or do not require specific action by
the designer.”
2 Addition to Clause 2, “Normative references”
Add the following normative reference and information and delete from the Bibliography:
"Replacement of normative reference ISO 11203:
ISO 11203:1995, Acoustics — Noise emitted by machinery and equipment — Determination of emission
sound pressure levels at a work station and at other specified positions from the sound power level"
3 Modification to Clause 3, “Terms and definitions”
Replace the existing 3.106 with the following:

Emissions
1) The noise emission, measured in accordance with I.2, as follows:
— A-weighted emission sound pressure level L and its uncertainty K , where L exceeds
pA pA pA
70 dB(A).
Where L does not exceed 70 dB(A), this fact shall be indicated;
pA
— A-weighted sound power level L and its uncertainty K , where the A-weighted emission
WA WA
sound pressure level L exceeds 80 dB(A);
pA
— C-weighted peak emission sound pressure level L , where this exceeds 130 dB in relation
pC,peak
to 20 µPa.
2) Recommendation for the operator to wear hearing protection.
3) The following information:
— that the declared noise emission value(s) have been measured in accordance with a standard
test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another;
— that the declared noise emission value(s) may also be used in a preliminary assessment of
exposure.
4) A warning:
— that the noise emissions during actual use of the power tool can differ by up to 10 dB compared
to the declared values, depending on the diamond wheel and working conditions, which should
be taken into account when selecting hearing protection; and
— of the need to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of
the noise exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating
cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the
trigger time).”
5 Addition to Clause 19, “Mechanical hazards”
Add the following new subclause 19.4:
“19.4 Addition:
