Noise and vibration values have been determined according to the standards and regulations mentioned in the declaration of conformity.

The stated vibration emission value was measured in accordance with a standard testing procedure and may be used to compare one power tool to another. The stated vibration emission value may also be used for a preliminary exposure assessment.

Warning: The vibration emission value may differ during actual use of the power tool from the stated value depending on the manner in which the power tool is used.

Try to keep the exposure to vibrations as low as possible. Examples of measures to reduce vibration exposure are the wearing of gloves when using the tool and limiting the working hours.

For this purpose all parts of the operating cycle have to be considered (for example, times when the electric tool is switched off and times when it is switched on but running without any load).
