3 ENGLISH
Intended use
The tool is intended for removing bubbles from concrete
when casting concrete.
Noise
The typical A-weighted noise level determined accord-
ing to EN60745-2-12:
Model VR001G
Sound pressure level (L
pA
) : 80 dB (A)
Uncertainty (K) : 3 dB (A)
Model VR003G
Sound pressure level (L
pA
) : 80 dB(A)
Uncertainty (K) : 3 dB(A)
Model VR004G
Sound pressure level (L
pA
) : 80 dB(A)
Uncertainty (K) : 3 dB(A)
The noise level under working may exceed 80 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 EN60745-2-12:
Model VR001G
Work mode: load with flexible hose
Vibration emission (a
h
) : 4.9 m/s
2
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s

Model VR003G
Work mode: load with flexible hose
Vibration emission (a
h
) : 4.9 m/s
2
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s

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-operated (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.
