NOISE
The equivalent daily personal noise exposure from this machine, measured at the
operators’ ear, is within the range 78 – 85 DB. These figures apply to a normal distribution
of use where the noise fluctuates between zero and maximum. The figures assume that
the machine is fitted to a tractor with a quiet cab with the windows closed in a generally
open environment. We recommend that the windows are kept closed. With the cab rear
window open the equivalent daily personal noise exposure will increase to a figure within
the range 82
– 88 DB. At equivalent daily noise exposure levels of between 85 and 90 DB,
ear protection is recommended, it should be used if any window is left open.
