WARNING
The declared vibration total values and the declared noise emission values
given in this instruction manual have been measured in accordance with a
standardised test and may be used to compare one tool with another. They may
be used for preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration and noise emission values represent the main
applications of the tool. However, if the tool is used for different
applications, used with different accessories, or poorly maintained, the
vibration and noise emission may differ. These conditions may significantly
increase the exposure levels over the totalworking period. An estimation of
the level of exposure to vibration and noise should take into account the
times when the tool is turned off or when it is running idle. These conditions
may significantly reduce the exposure level over the totalworking period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects
of vibration and noise, such as maintaining the tool and the accessories,
keeping the hands warm (in case of vibration), and organising work patterns.
