Raw material recycling instead of waste disposal
To avoid damages on transportation, the power tool has to be delivered in a sturdy
packing. Packaging as well as unit and accessories are made of recyclable materials
and can be disposed accordingly.
The tool’s plastic components are marked according to their material, which makes
it possible to remove environmental friendly and differentiated because of available
collection facilities.
Only for EU countries
Do not dispose of electric tools together with household waste
material!
In observance of the European Directive 2002/96/EC on waste
electrical and electronic equipment and its implementation in
accordance with national law, electric tools that have reached the
end of their life must be collected separately and returned to an
environmentally compatible recycling facility.
Noise Emission / Vibration
The indication of noise emission is measured according to DIN 45 635, part 21. The
level of acoustic pressure on the work place could exceed 85 dB (A); in this case
protection measures must be taken.
Wear ear protectors!
The typical hand-arm vibration is below 2.5 m/s².
Measured values determined according to EN 60 745.
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.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the
times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job.
This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
