The operator always must use ear protection. The emission value at the ear of
the driver varies depending on the materials used for paving and may even rise above
85 dB(A). If no ear protection devices are used, hearing can be impaired.
The sound emission level of the paver finisher was measured under free-field condi-
tions according to EN 500-6:2006 and ISO 4872.
