connected and properly used. Use of collection bag can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not touch moving hazardous parts before the machine is disconnected from the mains and the
moving hazardous parts have come to a complete stop. Laceration and/or cutting hazard!
g) If devices are provided for the connection of debris extraction and collection, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of collection bag can reduce debris-related hazards.
3.7- Residual risks
Even when the machine is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors.
The following hazards may arise in connection with the machine's construction and design:
a. Damage to lungs if an effective dust mask is not worn.
b. Damage to hearing if effective hearing protection is not worn.
c. Health defects resulting from vibration emission if the machine is being used over longer period of time or
not adequately managed and properly maintained.
3.8- Noise, vibrations and electromagnetic field information
a- Noise level
Wear hearing protection while operating the machine.
The noise level has been measured in accordance with a standard test method.
The declared noise level values are mentioned in the characteristics table.
b- Vibration level
The declared vibration total value has been measured in accordance with a standard test method and may be
used for comparing one machine with another.
The declared vibration total value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The vibration emission during actual use of the machine can differ from the declared total value
depending on the ways in which the machine is used.
There is the need to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure
in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool
is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).
Prolonged used of a tool (or other machines) may expose the operator to vibrations that may product white
finger disease (Raynaud's syndrome) or carpal tunnel syndrome.
These conditions reduce the hand's ability to feel and regulate temperature, produce numbness and may cause
nerve and circulation damage and tissue necrosis.
All factors that contribute to the white finger disease are not known.
Some of the factors mentioned in the development of the white finger disease are: cold weather, smoking and
diseases or physical conditions that affect blood vessels and blood transportation, as well as, high vibration
levels and long periods of exposure to vibration.
To help in the prevention and reducing the risk of the white finger disease, please note the following:
-- wear gloves and keep your hands warm;
-- maintain a firm grip at all times, but do not squeeze the handles with constant pressure,
-- take frequent pauses
The operator should closely monitor the condition of their hands and fingers, and if any of the symptoms
appear, seek medical advice immediately.
c- Electromagnetic field
Warning! This machine produces an electromagnetic field during operation. This field may under some
circumstances interfere with active or passive medical implants. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, we
recommend persons with medical implants to consult their physician and the medical implant manufacturer
before operating this machine.
