Vibration

The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical 

data and the declaration of conformity have been measured 

in accordance with a standard test method provided by 

EN 60745 and may be used for comparing one tool with 

another. The declared vibration emission value may also be 

used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

Warning!

 The vibration emission value during actual use of 

the power tool can differ from the declared value depending 

on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may 

increase above the level stated.

When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety 

measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly 

using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration 

exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the 

way the tool is used, including 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.
