Noise
The typical A-weighted noise level determined accord -
ing to EN50636-2-100:
Sound pressure level (L
pA
) : 80.9 dB (A)
Uncertainty (K) : 2.0 dB (A)
Sound power level (L
WA
) : 95.5 dB (A)
Uncertainty (K) : 1.7 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
value(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).
Vibration
The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) deter -
mined according to EN50636-2-100:
Work mode: operation without load
Vibration emission (a
h
) : 2.5 m/s
2
or less
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s

NOTE: The declared vibration total value(s) has been
measured in accordance with a standard test method
