| TCFs must be kept for at least 10 years after the last date of manufacture of the product. The TCF can be drawn up in one of the official languages of the EU, with the exemption of the instructions. Technical documentation can be kept electronically; however, it must be possible to assemble it and make it available within a reasonable period of time.
These questions provide an insight into the MD, but should not be construed as an exhaustive listing of issues that, if resolved, would prove conformance with CE marking requirements. The MD applies differently depending upon the machine's scope and use. Before seeking the CE mark for the MD, it is recommended that manufacturers consult experts and the directive itself. A thorough understanding of applicable directives and how they apply to your machine will enable the CE marking process to proceed more efficiently and free of costly delays. |
