Hi, The Machinery Directive (and many others) was amended by the "CE marking directive" 93/68/EEC (OJ L220, 8/30/93, page 8) to remove the year of manufacture from the "CE" marking. The same Directive also amended, Annex I, Clause 1.7.3 to require "- the year of construction." to be on the unit.

Can anyone verify how the date code is to be displayed? As in the old directive, Directive 98/37/EC requires the use of the year of manufacture. The old Directive indicated the year of manufacture should be a part of the CE mark, The new Directive appears to specify the year of manufacture is to placed on the product label. Does anyone have information about where the year is to be indicated and what happened to the year with the CE mark?
