Noise generated when working
Risk of damage to hearing

Vibration emission level a
three directions) and uncertainty K measured in
accordance with 62841:
Sägen von Holz
Sägen von Metall
The specified emission levels (vibration, noise)
–
are used to compare machines.
–
They are also used for making preliminary
estimates regarding vibration and noise
load during operation.
–
They represent the primary applications of
the power tool.
CAUTION
The emission values may deviate from the
specified values. This is dependent on how
the tool is used and the type of workpiece
being machined.
► The actual load during the entire operating
cycle must be evaluated.
► Depending on the actual load, suitable pro
tective measures must be defined in order
to protect the operator.
