This standard contains the requirements for safety for the design and installation of machines with one movable bridge for cutting of flat glass, which operate by scoring of the glass placed on a horizontal support. This standard covers the transport of the glass on the machine. This European Standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to flat glass cutting machines, when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4). This standard specifies the appropriate technical measures to eliminate or reduce risks arising from the significant hazards during commissioning, operation and maintenance.Hazards from noise are not considered to be significant
