Vibration Declaration.
The absence of a harmonised test code together with variable conditions under which this
equipment may be used allows only representative figures to be quotes.
Whole Body Vibration Level : a
w
(m/s²) = 0.25
Hand / Arm : a
ha
( m/s² ) ≤ 2.4
The above figures are for reference purposes only. It is the responsibility of the employer to access
vibration exposure based on the actual site conditions and operating practices at the point of use.
Employers should not rely solely on published vibration figures when undertaking risk assessments.
Depending on the site conditions cycle times may need to be adjusted in order to reduce operator
exposure levels.
