Sources of danger on the machine
Noise may damage your health
The noise development of the machine during operation may cause health damage such as
hardness of hearing, deafness or tinnitus. When using the machine at high rotational speed, the
noise level also increases. The height of the sound pressure level depends mainly on the tractor
used. The emissions value was measured with the cabin closed under conditions according to
DIN EN ISO 4254-1, Appendix B,
.
Before starting up the machine, estimate the risk caused by noise.
Depending on the ambient conditions, working hours and the working and operating
conditions of the machine, specify and use suitable hearing protection.
