Safety Warnings - Makita UM600D Instruction Manual

Sound power level according to Australia
NSW Noise Control Regulation
Intended use
UM600D with shear blade for grass shear installed
The tool is intended for cutting lawn edges or sprouts.
UH201D with shear blade for hedge trimmer installed
The tool is intended for trimming hedges.
Noise
The typical A-weighted noise level determined accord-
ing to EN50636-2-94:
UM600D/UH201D with shear blade for grass shear
installed
Sound pressure level (L
Uncertainty (K) : 0.11 dB(A)
The noise level under working may exceed 80 dB (A).
The typical A-weighted noise level determined accord-
ing to EN62841-4-2:
UM600D/UH201D with shear blade for hedge trim-
mer installed
Sound pressure level (L
Uncertainty (K) : 3 dB(A)
The noise level under working may exceed 80 dB (A).
NOTE: The declared noise emission value(s) has been
measured in accordance with a standard test method
and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
NOTE: The declared noise emission value(s) may
also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
Wear ear protection.
WARNING:
The noise emission during actual
use of the power tool can differ from the declared
value(s) depending on the ways in which the
tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is
processed.
WARNING:
Be sure to identify safety mea-
sures to protect the operator that are based on an
estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of
use (taking account of 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).
