Noise and Vibration
• Sound and vibration levels in the specification are determined according to ISO 28927-3.
The figures given can be used to compare similar tools tested to this standard. These figures
may be used to assess exposure to noise and vibration levels.
• The figures represent normal use for the tool in normal working condition. A poorly
maintained, incorrectly assembled or misused tool may produce increased levels of noise
and vibration. The total working period that you can operate this tool must factor in periods
where the tool is idle or switched off. Allow frequent rest breaks when operating this tool.
• It is in the interest of users to maximise their safety using the correct safety equipment, like
ear defenders that protect against loud or repetitive noise, and anti-vibration gloves that
minimise vibration. Do not operate the tool with your hands below a normal comfortable
temperature, as vibration will have a greater effect.
Sound
• The noise directive was introduced to protect against the risk to health and safety arising
or likely to arise from exposure to noise and risk of hearing. The Directive can be used to
define noise exposure and the physical parameters, such as peak sound pressure and
daily and weekly exposure level. Particular attention should be taken to exposure level
and duration.
• For more information on the Noise Directives 2003/10/EC and 2000/14/EC, please visit The
European Agency for Safety and Health at work -
www.osha.europa.eu.
Vibration
• The European Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive 2002/44/EC was introduced to control
the exposure of vibration at work. The Directive enables users of tools to make informed
decisions on the amount of time spent working. Those who regularly operate high vibration
equipment over a sustained period of time are at a higher risk of health problems. ISO
28927-3 measures vibration in three directions which is known as tri-axial or vector sum
measurement. When operating high vibration equipment, ensure not to exceed exposure
levels. For more details on The Vibration Directive 2002/44/EC please visit The European
Agency for Safety and Health at work -www.osha.europa.eu

• Ensure that the workpiece is securely fixed
• Entanglement Hazards
• Choking, scalping and/or lacerations can occur if loose clothing, personal jewellery, neck
wear, hair or gloves are not kept away from the tool and its accessories
Operating Hazards
2
• Use of the tool can expose the operator's hands to hazards, including cuts, abrasions
