This part of ISO 11148 specifies safety requirements for hand-held non-electric power tools without rotation (hereinafter ā€œcutting-off and crimping power toolsā€) intended for cutting off wires, cables, etc., and for crimping, for instance, connectors to cable ends. The cutting-off and crimping power tools can be powered by compressed air, hydraulic fluid or internal combustion engines and are intended to be used by one operator and supported by the operator’s hand or hands, with or without a suspension, e.g. a balancer.

NOTE 1 At the time of publication, no cutting-off or crimping power tools driven by internal combustion engines are known. Once these are identified, it is intended to amend this part of ISO 11148 to include such power tools.

This part of ISO 11148 is applicable to:

  • crimping tools without a yoke;

  • cutters;

  • cutting-off tools;

  • cutting pliers;

  • rimping pliers.

NOTE 2 For examples of cutting-off and crimping power tools, see Annex B.

This part of ISO 11148 is not applicable to special requirements and modifications of cutting-off and crimping power tools for the purpose of mounting them in fixtures, and it is not applicable to ā€œdouble acting hydraulic rescue tools for fire and rescue service useā€.

This part of ISO 11148 deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events relevant to cutting-off and crimping power tools when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer, with the exception of the use of cutting-off and crimping power tools in potentially explosive atmospheres.

NOTE 3 EN 13463-1 gives requirements for non-electric al equipment for potentially explosive atmospheres.
