EN To ensure quality, every piece of equipment is subject to a test operation and filled with motor oil. Oil is drained before transport; however, there can be some motor oil remains on the dip stick. Please check carefully the oil level and add motor oil again.

WARNING: The vibration emission level will vary because of the ways in which a power tool can be used and may increase above the level given in this information sheet. The vibration emission level may be used to compare one tool with another.

It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.

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 may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total 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.
