1.1  This document specifies the safety requirements for lifting tables which fulfil the following characteristics:
-  serving more than 2 fixed landings, and
-  having a vertical travel speed of no more than 0,15 m/s, unless safe by position, and
-  raising or lowering goods and not person(s), and
-  only accessible to persons during the loading/unloading phases, and
-  permanently installed.
1.2  This document does not apply to the following equipment:
-  permanently installed lifting tables, serving specific levels of a construction, with a vertical travel speed exceeding 0,15 m/s (EN 81-31);
-  lifting tables serving not more than two fixed landings of a construction (EN 1570-1);
-  lifting tables, serving more than 2 fixed landings of a construction for lifting operators, with a vertical travel speed not exceeding 0,15 m/s;
-  lifting tables carrying operators and installed in enclosures with a vertical travel speed not exceeding 0,15 m/s;
-  lifting tables used on ships;
-  lifting tables designed for artists and stage set features during artistic performances.
1.3  This document does not consider the additional requirements for:
-  electromagnetic compatibility;
-  operation in severe conditions (e.g. strong magnetic fields);
-  operation subject to special rules (e.g. potentially explosive atmospheres, mines);
-  handling of loads, the nature of which could lead to dangerous situations (e.g. molten metal, acids, radiating materials, particularly brittle loads, loose loads (gravel, tubes));
-  hazards occurring during construction, transportation, and disposal;
-  equipment installed on the load platform or the replacing or maintaining of it;
-  integration into broader systems or other machines, etc.;
-  cable-less controls, i.e. wireless;
-  lifting tables where the hydraulic pressure is derived directly from gas pressure;
-  lifting tables powered by internal combustion engines.
This document is not applicable to lifting tables manufactured before the date of its publication.
