Model DUB186

Sound pressure level (L

pA

) : 82.5 dB(A)

Uncertainty (K) : 2.3 dB(A)

Sound power level (L

WA

) : 92.4 dB (A)

Uncertainty (K) : 2.8 dB(A)

NOTE:

 The declared noise emission value(s) has been 

measured in accordance with a standard test method 

and may be used for comparing one tool with another.

NOTE:

 The declared noise emission value(s) may 

also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING:

 

Wear ear protection.

WARNING:

 

The noise emission during actual 

use of the power tool can differ from the declared val

-

ue(s) depending on the ways in which the tool is used 

especially what kind of workpiece is processed.

WARNING:

 

Be sure to identify safety mea-

sures to protect the operator that are based on an 

estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of 

use (taking account of all parts of the operating 

cycle such as the times when the tool is switched 

off and when it is running idle in addition to the 

trigger time).

SAFETY WARNINGS

General power tool safety warnings

WARNING:

 

Read all safety warnings, instruc-

tions, illustrations and specifications provided with this 

power tool.

 Failure to follow all instructions listed below 

may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instruc-

tions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-oper-

ated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety

1. 

Keep work area clean and well lit.

 Cluttered or 

dark areas invite accidents.

2. 

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-

spheres, such as in the presence of flammable 

liquids, gases or dust.

 Power tools create sparks 

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

3. 

Keep children and bystanders away while 

operating a power tool.

 Distractions can cause 

you to lose control.

Electrical safety

1. 

Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify 

the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with 

earthed (grounded) power tools. 

Unmodified plugs and 

matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

2. 

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded 

surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and 

refrigerators.

 There is an increased risk of elec-

tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

3. 

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-

ditions.

 Water entering a power tool will increase 

the risk of electric shock.

4. 

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, 

pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away 

from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

 Damaged 

or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

5. 

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an 

extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

 Use of a cord 

suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

6. 

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoid-

able, use a residual current device (RCD) protected 

supply.

 Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

7. 

Power tools can produce electromagnetic fields 

(EMF) that are not harmful to the user.

 However, 

users of pacemakers and other similar medical 

devices should contact the maker of their device and/

or doctor for advice before operating this power tool.

Personal safety

1. 

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use 

common sense when operating a power tool. 

Do not use a power tool while you are tired or 

under the influence of drugs, alcohol or med

-

ication.

 A moment of inattention while operating 

power tools may result in serious personal injury.

2. 

Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye 

protection.

 Protective equipment such as a dust mask, 

non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used 

for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
