Overview

This European Standard specifies safety requirements and their verification for the design and construction of robotic battery powered electrical rotary lawnmowers and their peripherals with the rated voltage of the battery being not more than 75 V d.c. charged by mains electrical and/or alternative energies, for example solar power. This European Standard does not apply to non-robotic machines such as lawn trimmers, lawn edge trimmers, lawn edgers, ride-on lawnmowers or pedestrian controlled lawnmowers. This European Standard is not applicable to EMC and environmental hazards (except noise). This European Standard does not apply to internal combustion engine(s), hybrid and fuel cell powered machines and associated charging systems. This European Standard deals with all the significant hazards presented by battery powered robotic lawnmowers and their peripherals when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable. This European Standard is not applicable to machines, which are manufactured before the date of publication of this document by CENELEC. This European Standard does not apply for battery chargers (EN 60335-2-29:2004). The responsible committee is DKE/UK 514.3 "Garten- und Rasenpflegegeräte" ("Garden and lawn equipment") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
