Working Area
The working area designates the position from which the machine is operated.

Emission Levels
5.3.1
Noise Information
The values given are emission levels and therefore do not necessarily represent safe workstation values at the
same time. Although there is a correlation between emission and immission levels, it cannot be reliably deduced
whether additional precautionary measures are necessary or not.
Factors that may affect the current immission level at the workstation include the duration of exposure, the
nature of the workspace, other noise sources (e.g. the number of machines and other adjacent operations). The
permissible workstation values can also vary from country to country.
However, this information should enable the user to make a better assessment of hazard and risk.
5.3.2
Noise Emission Values
The measurement values given are determined in accordance with the prEN 848-1 standard.
Uncertainty allowance K = 4 dB(A)
Workplace-related emission value (acc. to EN ISO 11202)
Noise level L
WA
(acc. to EN ISO 3746)
Idle 67.4 dB(A)
Idle 79.9 dB(A)
Operation 82.4 dB(A)
Operation 91.2 dB(A)
The noise emission values of the machine partly exceed 85 dB(A)!
Therefore, suitable hearing protection must be provided to the personnel!
Workplace-related dust emission value:
The determined values comply with the required assessment values
for the "GS wood dust test" mark by the German Woodworkers trade association (Holz BG).
