NO CONTENTS SECTION

Specifies a test method and the corresponding strength requirements for cutting attachment guards of portable hand held combustion engine brush cutters and grass trimmers. Does not apply to cutting attachment guards for lawn trimmers.

This International Standard specifies a test method and the corresponding strength requirements for cutting attachment guards of portable hand-held combustion engine brush-cutters, for use primarily in forestry, and grass-trimmers, to test their safety in practical use. This ensures safety for the operator being protected from thrown objects and unintentional contacts with the cutting attachment.

Another aspect of safety when designing a cutting attachment guard is its dimensions: required dimensions are given in ISO 7918.

NOTE 1 The present edition is ISO 7918:1985 and covers only circular saw-blade guards to brush-saws, but it is anticipated that the new edition will cover cutting attachment guard dimensions for portable brush-cutters, brush-saws and grass-trimmers.

This International Standard does not apply to cutting attachment guards for lawn-trimmers, which are dealt with in ISO 10518[1].
