Noise and Vibration Information
Measured sound values determined according to EN 50636-2-100:2014.
The noise figures quoted are emission levels and are not necessarily safe working
levels. Whilst there is a correlation between the emission and exposure levels, this
cannot be used reliably to determine whether or not further precautions are required.
Factors that influence the actual level of exposure of work-force include the
characteristics of the work room, the other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the number of
machines and other adjacent processes, and the length of time for which an operator
is exposed to the noise. Also the permissible exposure level can vary from country.
This information, however, will enable the user of the machine to make a better
evaluation of the hazard and risk.
Wear hearing protection!
Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined according to EN 50636-2-
100:2014.
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in
accordance with a standardized test given in EN 50636-2-100:2014 and may be used
to compare one tool with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
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.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration
such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of
work patterns.
