* Sound measurements are measured in accordance with a standardized test per
Standard EN 62841-1.
- Sound emissions may vary due to your location and specific use of these tools.
- Daily exposure levels for sound need to be evaluated for each application
and appropriate safety measures taken when needed. Evaluation of expo-
sure levels should consider the time a tool is switched off and not in use. This
may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Refer to your machine serial number plate for information
specific to your machine.
