You can use the table below for a simple assessment of the wind speed. We remember that the max. limit for each machine
model is indicated in the table TECHNICAL FEATURES OF STANDARD MACHINES.
The machines for which the max. wind limit is 0 m/s must be used indoors only. These machines cannot be
used outdoors even with no wind.

by smoke direction
2 7-11 1.7-3 Light breeze
Tiny, short but visible wavelets. No breaking
water waves, crests foam with glassy
appearance.
Wind perception on
bare skin. The leaves
rustle.

Water waves start to break: the crest foam
looks glassy. "Whitecaps" of bubbles and
streaks on breaking crests.
Leaves and small twigs
constantly moving.

Moderate
breeze
Small waves becoming longer. Numerous
whitecaps.
Dust, leaves, and loose
paper lifted. Small tree
branches move.
5 30-39 8.3-10.8 Fresh breeze
Moderate waves taking longer form. many
whitecaps, some spray.
Small trees in leaf begin
to sway, small waves
start to form on inland
waters.

Long waves begin to form. White foam
crests are very frequent. Some sprays.

moving, whistling in
wires Strong resistance
felt walking against
wind.

Twigs breaking off
trees, generally
impedes progress
Walking against the
