Vibration
The vibration total value (tri-axial vector sum) deter-
mined according to EN62841-2-4:
Model DBO480
Work mode: sanding metal plate (square base)
Vibration emission (a ) : 2.5 m/s
h
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s
Work mode: sanding metal plate (louver base)
Vibration emission (a ) : 4.1 m/s
h
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s
Model DBO481
Work mode: sanding metal plate (square base)
Vibration emission (a ) : 2.5 m/s
h
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s
Model DBO482
Work mode: sanding metal plate (square base)
Vibration emission (a ) : 3.4 m/s
h
Uncertainty (K) : 1.5 m/s
NOTE: The declared vibration total 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 vibration total value(s) may also
be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
The vibration 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).
