–
Wear protective goggles.
–
Connect the power tool to a suitable dust
extractor with an antistatic suction hose.
–
Regularly clean dust deposits from the mo
tor housing on the power tool.
–
Use an aluminium saw blade.
–

Emission levels
The levels determined in accordance
with EN 62841 are typically:
Sound pressure level
Sound power level
Uncertainty
CAUTION
Noise generated when working
Risk of damage to hearing
► Use ear protection.
Vibration emission level a
three directions) and uncertainty K measured in
accordance with EN 62841:
Sawing wood
Sawing aluminium
The specified emission levels (vibration, noise)
–
are used to compare machines.
–
They are also used for making preliminary
estimates regarding vibration and noise
load during operation.
–
They represent the primary applications of
the power tool.
CAUTION
The emission values may deviate from the
specified values. This is dependent on how
the tool is used and the type of workpiece
being machined.
► The actual load during the entire operating
cycle must be evaluated.
► Depending on the actual load, suitable pro
tective measures must be defined in order
to protect the operator.
