Hello everone,

I have a question related to products under the machinery directive:

We have a mains switch and an emergency switch on a machine. The testing agency 
insists these 
should be marked in words near the switches. (Of course that would be a 
different marking in 
every geopgraphical location depending on the local language)

This requirement is obviously a problem, and we are not sure it is well 
founded. We would much 
rather settle for an "icon" type of marking or no marking (i.e. the emergency 
switch is 
obviously a red "mushroom" type)

Please comment on this from your knowledge and experience

thanks and happy holidays

Moshe
