Erbauer 3663602796091, Original Instructions Manual

VIBRATION AND NOISE REDUCTION

To reduce the impact of noise and vibration emission, limit the time of operation, 

use  low-vibration  and  low-noise  operating  modes  as  well  as  wear  personal 

protective equipment.

Take the following points into account to minimise the vibration and noise exposure 

risks:

1.  Only use the product as intended by its design and these instructions.

2.  Ensure that the product is in good condition and well maintained.

3.  Use correct attachments for the product and ensure they are in good condition.

4.  Keep tight grip on the handles/grip surface.

5.  Maintain this product in accordance with these instructions and keep it well lubri-

cated (where appropriate).

6.  Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a longer pe-

riod of time.

7.  Prolonged use of the product exposes the user to vibrations that can cause a 

range  of  conditions  collectively  known  as  hand-arm  vibration  syndrome  (HAVS) 

e.g. fingers going white; as well as specific diseases such as carpal tunnel syn-

drome. To reduce this risk when using the product, always wear protective gloves 

and keep your hands warm.

RESIDUAL RISKS

Even  if  you  are  operating  this  product  in  accordance  with  all  the  safety 

requirements,  potential  risks  of  injury  and  damage  remain.  The  following 

dangers can arise in connection with the structure and design of this product:

1.  Health defects resulting from vibration emission if the product is being used over 

long periods of time or not adequately managed and properly maintained.

2.  Injuries and damage to property due to broken attachments or the sudden impact 

of hidden objects during use.

3.  Danger of injury and property damage caused by flying objects or poor power tool 

accessories.

WARNING! 

This  product  produces  an  electromagnetic  field  during 

operation! This field may under some circumstances interfere with active 

or passive medical implants! To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, 

we recommend persons with medical implants to consult their doctor and 

the medical implant manufacturer before operating this product!

WARNING! 

The vibration emission during actual use of the power tool 

can differ from the declared total value depending on the ways in which 

the tool is used:

•  How the materials are grinded, cut or drilled.

•  If the tool is in good condition and well maintained.

•  Use correct accessory for the tool and ensure it is sharp and in good 

condition.

•  The tightness of the grip on the handles. 

•  And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these 

instructions. 

While  working  with  this  power  tool,  hand/arm  vibrations  occur. 

Adopt the correct working practices in order to reduce the exposure 

to vibration. This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its 

use is not adequately managed.

WARNING! 

Identify safety measures to protect the operator that are 

based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (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).

Note:

•  The use of other tools will reduce the users’ total working period on 

this tool.

•  Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk. ALWAYS use sharp 

chisels, drills and blades.

•  Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well 

lubricated (where appropriate).

•  Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10ºC or less. Plan your work 

schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of 

days.

Health surveillance 

All employees should be part of an employer’s health surveillance scheme to help 

identity any vibration related diseases at an early stage, prevent disease progression 

and help employees stay in work.
