Noise and vibration information
Measured values determined according EN 50636
- The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another.
- The given vibration emission level may be used for the initial estimation of the real exposure.
- The vibration emission level will vary because of the ways in which a power tool can be used and may increase above the level given in this information sheet.
- Try to keep the exposure as low as possible. To reduce the vibration emission level the user should wear working-gloves and use the machine for limited time.
- All parts of working cycles have to be considered (including the time the power tool is switched off, and the time, when the power tool is running under no-load condition).
Before starting up the garden vacuum (preparation)
- The voltage indicated on the rating-plate must correspond to the voltage of the power source.
- We recommend that this equipment is only connected into a socket which is protected by a circuit-breaker that would be actuated by a 30 mA residual current.
