INFORMATION CONCERNING NOISE

The noise values indicated are emission levels and not necessarily safe operating levels. While there is a correlation between emission levels and exposure levels, this cannot reliably be used to determine whether or not further safety precautions are needed. Factors which influence the real level of a worker’s exposure include the duration of exposure, the characteristics of the working environment, other sources of noise, for example the number of machines or operations being carried out in the near vicinity. Furthermore, levels of safe exposure may be fixed differently from one country to another. This information does however help the machine user to better assess the hazards and risks.
IT IS ADVISABLE TO USE SUITABLE HEARING PROTECTION SUCH AS EARMUFFS OR EAR PLUGS.

INFORMATION ON ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
