5.1 General
Machinery and parts of machinery, the fitting or refitting of which could be a source of risk,shall be marked by means such as rating plates, name-plates, labels, stamps, engravings and colours. Such marking shall be considered an integral part of the delivery of the machinery.Any marking on the equipment shall be consistent with that in the accompanying documentation to avoid confusion.
Markings, signs and textual information shall be readily understandable and unambiguous,especially in regard to which part or function of the machine they relate.
Signs such as graphical symbols and safety signs shall be used in preference to textual information. Graphical symbols shall conform, where possible, to those standardized in IEC 6041 7 and ISO 7000. Safety signs shall conform to ISO 701 0 (see Annex A).
Textual information shall be in the language(s) of the country in which the machine is to be used and may be, at the user’s request, in the language(s) understood by the operators and exposed persons.
Where a machine or piece of equipment, excluding consumable items, has insufficient space on it for lettering to be big enough to be legible or to be marked at all, the minimum information specified shall be provided on the packaging in which the item is distributed.
The markings shall be clearly visible when the machine is installed in the manner prescribed by the manufacturer, or, when this is not possible, additional markings or written warnings shall be placed near the machine in such a manner that they are visible to exposed persons.
Marking shall be permanent and remain legible throughout all phases of the “life” of the machine (See also Clause 7).
All equipment shall be packaged in a manner that preserves its identification during transportation.
