Scope:

IEC 62841-4-3:2020 This document applies to the design of pedestrian controlled
walk-behind
- cylinder lawnmowers;
and
- rotary lawnmowers
equipped with
- metallic cutting means; and/or
- rigid non-metallic cutting means; and/or
- non-metallic cutting means with one or more cutting elements pivotally mounted on a
generally circular drive unit, where these cutting elements rely on centrifugal force to
achieve cutting, and have a kinetic energy for each single cutting element of greater
than 10 J.

Project need:

This proposed New Standard is being developed at the request of industry members. It will provide the industry with a standard for walk behind lawnmowers.

Note: The information provided above was obtained by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) and is provided as part of a centralized, transparent notification system for new standards development. The system allows SCC-accredited Standards Development Organizations (SDOs), and members of the public, to be informed of new work in Canadian standards development, and allows SCC-accredited SDOs to identify and resolve potential duplication of standards and effort.

Individual SDOs are responsible for the content and accuracy of the information presented here. The text is presented in the language in which it was provided to SCC.
