WARNING: The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is
used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This
may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
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.
The vibration emission level may be used to compare one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
An accurate estimate of the vibratory load should also take into account the times when the tool is shut down or when
it is running but not actually in use. This may significantly reduce the vibratory load over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and
the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
