The total vibration emission values specified and the de-
vice emissions values specified have been measured in
accordance with a standardised test procedure and can
be used for comparison of one electric tool with another.
The total noise emission values specified and the total vi-
bration emission values specified can also be used for an
initial estimation of the load.
WARNING
The noise emission values and vibration
emission value can vary from the specified
values during the actual use of the power
tool, depending on the type and the manner
in which the power tool is used, and in partic-
ular the type of workpiece being processed.
Try to keep the stress as low as possible. For example:
Limit working time. In doing so, all parts of the operating
cycle must be taken into account (such as times in
which the power tool is switched off or times in which it
is switched on, but is not running under a load).
