* Declared noise level; measurements carried out in accordance with EN ISO 15744 . It is recommended to wear ear protection while
using this tool .
** Declared vibration level in accordance with standard EN ISO 28927 .
IMPORTANT NOTE: The noise and vibration values stated are from laboratory testing in conformity with stated codes and standards
and are not sufficient risk evaluation for all exposure scenarios . Values measured in a particular work place may be higher than the
declared values . Exposure to high noise levels can cause permanent, disabling hearing loss and other problems, such as tinnitus
(ringing, buzzing, whistling or humming in the ears) . Therefore, risk assessment and the implementation of appropriate controls
for these hazards are essential . The actual exposure values and amount of risk or harm experienced to an individual is unique to
each situation and depends upon the surrounding environment, the way in which the individual works, the particular material being
worked, work station design, as well as upon the exposure time and the physical condition of the user . 3M cannot be held responsible
for the consequences of using declared values instead of actual exposure values for any individual risk assessment .
