Emission values
Using these values, you can estimate the
emissions from this power tool and compare these
with the values emitted by other power tools. The
actual values may be higher or lower, depending on
the particular application and the condition of the
tool or power tool. In estimating the values, you
should also include work breaks and periods of low
use. Based on the estimated emission values,
specify protective measures for the user - for
example, any organisational steps that must be put
in place.
