3.2.1
handfed surface planing machine
machine designed for cutting off layers of the lower surface of a work piece by a cutterblock rotating around a
horizontal axis, mounted at right angles to the infeed direction between two tables designed to position and
support the work piece
NOTE The cutterblock is a cylindrical shaped complex tool equipped with blades with horizontal straight cutting line
that cuts while rotating (see also for a description of the complex tool EN 847-1:2005). The work piece is fed into the
machine against the direction of the cut
3.2.2
hand feed
manual holding and/or guiding of the work-piece. Hand feed includes the use of a demountable power feed
unit
3.2.3
stationary machine
machine designed to be located on or fixed to the floor or other parts of the structure of the premises and to
be stationary during use
3.2.4
displaceable machine

which allows it to be moved between locations
3.2.5

NOTE The combined safety-related parts of a control system start at the point where the safety-related signals are
initiated (including e.g. the actuating cam and the roller of the position switch) and end at the output of the power control
elements (including e.g. the main contacts of the contactor). This also includes monitoring systems (3.1 of EN ISO 13849-
