Noise information: Measured values determined
according to EN 62841.
Typically, the A-weighted noise levels of the tool are:
Sound pressure level / Uncertainty K
Sound power level / Uncertainty K
Always wear ear protectors!
Vibration information:
Total vibration values (vector sum in the three axes)
determined according to EN 62841.
Vibration emission value a

For technical data and approvals of application heads for use on various powerbases please refer to the operating instructions
of the used application head.
WARNING!
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized
test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of
exposure.
The declared vibration and noise emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for
diff erent applications, with diff erent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diff er. This may
signifi cantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise should also take into account the times when the tool is switched
off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signifi cantly reduce the exposure level over the total working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eff ects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintain the tool
and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of work patterns.
WARNING Read these instructions carefully, be
familiar with the controls and the proper use of the
machine. Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
