* Energy-rich, high-frequency interference can
cause fluctuations in speed. The fluctuations
disappear, however, as soon as the interference
fades away.
The technical specifications quoted are subject to
tolerances (in compliance with the relevant valid

or lower depending on the operating conditions, the
condition of the power tool or the accessories.
Please allow for breaks and periods when the load
is lower for assessment purposes. Arrange
protective measures for the user, such as
organisational measures based on the adjusted
estimates.
