WARNING: Always wear ear protection where the sound level exceeds 85dB(A) and
limit the time of exposure if necessary. If sound levels are uncomfortable, even with ear
protection, stop using the tool immediately and check the ear protection is correctly fitted
and provides the correct level of sound attenuation for the level of sound produced by
your tool.
WARNING: User exposure to tool vibration can result in loss of sense of touch, numbness,
tingling and reduced ability to grip. Long term exposure can lead to a chronic condition. If
necessary, limit the length of time exposed to vibration and use anti-vibration gloves. Do
not operate the tool with hands below a normal comfortable temperature, as vibration will
have a greater effect. Use the figures provided in the specification relating to vibration to
calculate the duration and frequency of operating the tool.
Sound and vibration levels in the specification are determined according to EN60745
or similar international standards. The figures represent normal use for the tool in
normal working conditions. A poorly maintained, incorrectly assembled, or misused tool,
may produce increased levels of noise and vibration.

www.osha.europa.eu provides

information on sound and vibration levels in the workplace that may be useful to domestic
users who use tools for long periods of time.
Carefully read and understand this manual and any label attached to the tool before use.
Keep these instructions with the product for future reference. Ensure all persons who use
this product are fully acquainted with this manual.
Even when used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. Use
with caution. If you are at all unsure of the correct and safe manner in which to use this
tool, do not attempt to use it.
