Access to danger zones that cannot be supervised by the operator from the different possible control positions shall be avoided by appropriate provisions." 5.1.5.3 !Emergency stop Emergency stop device is not required for manual fed machines as it would not reduce the stopping time the operator being close to the drill motor.
All machines with remote control and/or automatic feed shall be fitted with an easily accessible emergency stop in the system. This emergency stop shall be in accordance with EN ISO 13850:2008. It shall stop all dangerous movements as quickly as possible without creating an additional hazard." 5.1.6 Failure of the power supply An interruption of the power supply and a reestablishment after an interruption shall not lead to a dangerous situation in particular:  the machine shall not be restarted automatically, an intentional action shall be necessary;  the machine shall not be prevented from stopping if the stop command has been given;  neither movement nor dangerous actions shall occur.
Such failures shall not impede any stop function. NOTE Manual feed machines, the power of which does not exceed 750 W and which are intended to be used with core drills, the diameter of which does not exceed 60 mm are considered as presenting no particular danger in the case of restoration of energy supply. 5.1.7 Dissipation of residual energy On pneumatically powered machines a main line valve shall be provided which either connects the machines to the air supply or in the closed position shuts off the air supply and releases the air pressure in the drilling unit when stopping the machine.
