Technical data
Vibration emission
WARNING! The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool
can differ from the declared value depending on the following examples and
other variations on how the tool is used:
How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled.
The tool being in good condition and well maintained.
The use of the correct accessory for the tool, and ensuring it is sharp and in
good condition.
The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti-vibration accessories
are used.
And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.
This tool may cause Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) if its use is
not adequately managed.
WARNING! To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual
conditions of use should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle,
such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle but
not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over
the total working period. 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).
If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti-vibration accessories.
Avoid using tools in temperatures of 100
Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number
of days.
Vibration emission measurements
– That 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;
– That the declared vibration total value may also be used in a preliminary
assessment of exposure.
– That 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; and of
the need to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an
estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking into account 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.)
