Metabo W 18 LTX 115 Original Instructions Manual page 21

The vibration emission level given in this informa-
tion sheet has been measured in accordance with
a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be
used to compare one tool with another. It is also
suitable for a provisional estimate of the vibratory
load.
The specified vibration level applies to the main
applications of the power tool. However, if the tool
is used for other applications, with different acces-
sories or is poorly maintained, the vibration level
may vary. This can considerably increase the
vibratory load over the entire working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration
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 can considerably
reduce the vibratory load over the entire working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the
operator from the effects of vibration such as:
maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the
hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
A-effective perceived sound levels:
L = Sound pressure level
pA
L = Acoustic power level
WA
K = Uncertainty (noise level)
pA/WA
During operation the noise level can exceed
80 dB(A).
Wear ear protectors!
Measured values determined in conformity with
EN 60745.
The technical specifications quoted are subject to
tolerances (in compliance with the relevant valid
standards).
