Avoid working with the tool at temperatures
below 10 °C. Define how the vibration load
can be limited in a work plan.

periods as necessary and restrict the duration of
the work to a minimum. For your personal protec-
tion and protection of persons in the vicinity, ap-
propriate hearing protection must be worn.
