Restriction: This harmonised standard does not confer a presumption of conformity, limited to machines where the shredding means can rotate at speeds exceeding 300 r•min-1, with the essential health and safety requirements set out in point 1.1.2. (a) of Annex I to Directive 2006/42/EC, which requires that machinery must be designed and constructed so that it is fitted for its function, and can be operated without putting persons at risk when these operations are carried out under the conditions foreseen, but also taking into account any reasonably foreseeable misuse thereof, as well as point 1.3.3. of Annex I to Directive 2006/42/EC, as regards precautions that must be taken to prevent risks from ejected objects, which shall also consider long objects such as tall trees.
The Commission's workbook for this regime, generated in September 2026, carries no separate 'Start of legal effect' column; the publication OJ date is shown in that column.
