ÖNORM EN ISO 11681-1

Issue date: 2022 11 01

Machinery for forestry - Portable chain-saw safety requirements and testing - Part 1: Chain-saws for forest service (ISO 11681-1:2022)

This document specifies safety requirements and measures for verification for the design, construction, transporting and commissioning of portable, combustion-engine, hand-held chain-saws. The chainsaws are intended to be used for forest work by only one operator, with the right hand on the rear handle and left hand on the front handle. Dismantling and scrapping of the product is not covered by this document. Methods for the elimination or reduction of hazards arising from the use of these machines and the type of information on safe working practices to be provided by the manufacturer are specified. This document deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events, with the exception of kickback and balance for machines with an engine displacement of more than 80 cm³, relevant to these machines when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer.

Frequently Asked Questions about ÖNORM EN ISO 11681-1

What does “§ Referenced in legislation” mean? In which laws is ÖNORM EN ISO 11681-1 used?

This standard is cited in Austrian laws or regulations and may therefore have binding effect. The citation demonstrates that the standard is used as a recognised basis for meeting legal requirements.

ÖNORM EN ISO 11681-1 is cited in the following Austrian laws or regulations:

–    BGBl. II Nr. 50/2024:2024 02 15

What is a "Single-User Licence"?

When you purchase a standard from the Austrian Standards webshop (e.g. ÖNORM, ISO), a single-user licence is included as standard. This entitles a single person to use the standard. A multi-user licence is required if several employees need access. It enables company-wide, legally compliant use and sharing of standards.
