IEC 62841-4-9:2026 pdf download,Electric motor-operated hand-held tools, transportable tools and lawn and garden machinery – Safety – Part 4-9: Particular requirements for battery-powered chain saws for tree service.

IEC 62841-4-9:2026 specifically pertains to motor-operated chain saws that are powered by rechargeable batteries, designed for tree care applications. These units, referred to as chain saws or machines in this context, must not exceed a total weight of 5.0 kg. This weight encompasses the heaviest detachable battery pack(s) as outlined in IEC 62841-1:2014, K.8.14.2 e) 2), but it does not include components such as the guide bar, saw chain, or the lubricant utilized for the saw chain.

The chain saws defined in this standard are primarily intended for two key functions: pruning and the disassembly of tree crowns that remain standing. These applications require precision and efficiency, making the adherence to the guidelines set forth in this document essential for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of these tools. As users engage in tasks related to tree maintenance, compliance with IEC standards not only enhances the operational reliability of the equipment but also promotes a safer working environment in arboreal contexts.
