WARNING: The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is

used for dierent applications, with dierent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may dier. This may signicantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. 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.
