The responsible person must draw up an EC Declaration of Conformity and affix the CE mark (see Figure 7) to all machines supplied. The machines should also be supplied with the EC Declaration of Conformity (see Figure 8).
Note: Safety components should have an EC Declaration of Conformity but not a CE mark with respect to the Machinery Directive (although they may be CE marked to indicate conformity to other directives such as the EMC and/or Low Voltage Directives).
The CE mark indicates the machine conforms to all applicable European Directives and the appropriate conformity assessment procedures have been completed. It is an offense to apply the CE mark for the Machinery Directive unless the machine satisfies the EHSRs for all applicable directives and is, in fact, safe. It is also an offense to apply any mark that may be confused with the CE mark.
