NOTE

This requirement is provided according to BRITISH STANDARD 2769: 1984

Therefore, the letter code and colour code may not be applicable to other markets except The United Kingdom.

Information concerning airborne noise and vibration The measured values were determined according to EN60745 and declared in accordance with ISO 4871.

The typical A-weighted sound pressure level: 84 dB (A)

The typical A-weighted sound power level: 95 dB (A)

Uncertainty KpA: 3 dB (A).

Wear hearing protection.

Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined according to EN60745.

Cutting wood:

Vibration emission value ah, CW = 18.3 m/s2 Uncertainty K = 2.1 m/s2

Cutting sheet metal:

Vibration emission value ah, CM = 17.2 m/s2 Uncertainty K = 4.3 m/s2

The declared vibration total value has been measured in accordance with a standard test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another.

It 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 total value depending on the ways in which the tool is used.

￿Identify safety measures 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).
