VIBRATION
(1.5) Note:
The vibration measurement
was made under standard conditions in
accordance with: EN 62841-1: 2015,
EN 62841-2-5: 2014
Warning: Wear hearing protection!
The declared vibration total value has been
measured in accordance with a standard test
method and may be used for comparing one
tool with another.
The declared vibration total value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
(1.6) WARNING:
When using this machine
the operator can be exposed to high levels of
vibration transmitted to the hand and arm.
It is possible that the operator could develop
“Vibration white finger disease” (Raynaud
syndrome). This condition can reduce the
sensitivity of the hand to temperature as
well as producing general numbness.
Prolonged or regular users of this machine
should monitor the condition of their hands
and fingers closely. If any of the symptoms
become evident, seek immediate
medical advice.
• The measurement and assessment of
human exposure to hand-transmitted
vibration in the workplace is given in:
EN 62841-1 and EN 62841-2-5
• Many factors can influence the actual
vibration level during operation e.g. the
work surfaces condition and orientation
and the type and condition of the machine
being used. Before each use, such factors
should be assessed, and where possible
appropriate working practices adopted.
Managing these factors can help reduce the
effects of vibration:
Handling
• Handle the machine with care,
allowing the machine to do the work.
• Avoid using excessive physical effort on any
of the machines controls.
• Consider your security and stability,
and the orientation of the machine
during use.
Work Surface
• Consider the work surface material;
its condition, density, strength,
rigidity and orientation.
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.
The need to identify safety measures
and to protect the operator 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 the
tool is switched off, when it is running idle,
in addition to trigger time).
