of 2 clamps M

• Vibration level

The vibration emission level stated at the back of this

instruction manual has been measured in accordance

with a standardised test given in EN 60745; it may be

used to compare one tool with another and as a

preliminary assessment of exposure to vibration when

using the tool for the applications mentioned

- using the tool for different applications, or with

different or poorly maintainted accessories, may

signiﬁ cantly increase the exposure level

- the times when the tool is switched off or when it is

running but not actually doing the job, may

signiﬁ cantly reduce the exposure level

! protect yourself against the effects of vibration by

maintaining the tool and its accessories, keeping

your hands warm, and organizing your work

patterns
