noise emission may differ. This may significantly increase
the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and/
or noise should also take into account the times when the
tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually
doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure
level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the
operator from the effects of vibration and/or noise such
as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the
hands warm (relevant for vibration), organisation of
work patterns.
