EN 15027:2007+A1:2009 (E) 5 Introduction This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100-1:2003. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered are indicated in the scope of this document. When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard. It is intended to revise this standard to align with changes in legislation and the availability of other European Standards in preparation. SIST EN 15027:2008+A1:2009

1 Scope The global description “wall saw and wire saw equipment” contains two differing types of machines for use in the construction industry, and both used to make cuts on walls, ceilings and floors composed of mineral construction materials and/or composite materials. The many different cutting tasks and choice of operating method determine the type of machine to be used for each application. The machines may therefore be split into the following two principal classifications:  Wall saws – exclusively rail guided – transportable.  Wire saws – transportable. The machines are intended for the use of diamond tools. The types of cutting tools used in conjunction with the machines as described above fall within the design and use parameters supplied by the manufacturer. Cutting debris generated by the cutting action is removed from the cutting joint by a medium such as water directed to the cutting tool. Machines covered by this standard may be powered by: electric motor, IC engine, electro-hydraulic drive and IC engine-hydraulic drive. This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to wall saws and wire saws machinery, when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). This standard specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce risks arising from the significant hazards generated by the cutting process work cycle. For special applications, for example, when working in potentially explosive atmospheres, additional safety requirements is necessary which are not covered by this standard. This European Standard does not apply for wire saws intended for quarrying and stationary machining of natural stone as covered by !EN 15163". This European Standard applies primarily to machines which are manufactured after the date of approval by CEN of this standard. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

Burrs from, for example, manufacturing, casting and welding shall be eliminated, sharp edges shall be smoothed. 5.2.2 Protection against moving parts 5.2.2.1 Moving parts not involved in the working process Rotating transmission parts, for example, couplings and drive shafts shall be provided with fixed guards to prevent contact. !Guards shall comply with EN 953 and 5.3.2.2 of EN ISO 12100-2:2003." Fixed guards shall be used and be held in position either by welding or mounting them in such a way that they can only be opened or removed only with the aid of tools or keys. !deleted text" 5.2.2.2 Moving parts involved in the working process 5.2.2.2.1 General The guards for the protection against contact with the tool and its driving and guiding devices shall be so designed and robust enough to resist strains resulting from an accidental projection of fragments of the cutting tool. Brittleness of the guard material shall be taken into account. Permanent plastic deformation of the guard resulting from stress shall be allowed. Requirements for the strength of cutting-off wheel and wire guards are specified in Annex B. The existence of a device stopping the cutting-off wheel is not necessary, when the absence or the opening of the guard creates a projection of water, which prevents an intended use of the machine. 5.2.2.2.2 Wall saws The upper part of the cutting tool and its fixing shall be covered with a fixed guard to avoid inadvertent contact and designed with sufficient strength to protect against ejection of fragments of the tool, water, the material to be cut and take into account that the machine may be remotely controlled by the operator.
