WARNING! – Risk of Hand Arm Vibration Injury.
This tool may cause Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome if its use is not managed adequately.
ThistoolissubjecttothevibrationtestingsectionoftheMachineryDirective2006/42/EC.
This tool is to be operated in accordance with these instructions.
This tool has been tested in accordance with: ENISO28927-1:2009&BSENISO15744:2008.
DeclarationandverificationofVibrationEmissionfiguresareinaccordancewithEN12096:1997
Measured vibration emission value (a): 6.151 m/s²
Uncertainty value(k): 1.50m/s²
Please note that the application of the tool to a sole specialist task may produce a different average vibration emission. We
recommend that a specific evaluation of the vibration emission is conducted prior to commencing with a specialist task.
A health and safety assessment by the user (or employer) will need to be carried out to determine the suitable duration of use for
each tool.
NB: StatedVibrationEmissionvaluesaretype-testvaluesandareintendedtobetypical.
Whilstinuse,theactualvaluewillvaryconsiderablyfromanddependonmanyfactors.
Such factors include; the operator, the task and the inserted tool or consumable.
NB: ensure that the length of leader hoses is sufficient to allow unrestricted use, as this also helps to reduce vibration.
The state of maintenance of the tool itself is also an important factor, a poorly maintained tool will also increase the risk of Hand Arm
Vibration Syndrome.
