This European standard specifies safety requirements and their verification for design and construction of pedestrian controlled motor mowers with rotary and alternative cutting tools used in agricultural, forestry or similar surfaces to cut or mulch grass or similar plants or scrub and woody vegetation. It applies also to interchangeable equipment for cutting or mulching grass or scrub intended to be mounted on a pedestrian controlled tractor. It does not cover lawn mowers (see EN 836:1997) or other lawn maintenance equipment.
