(1.6) Note: The vibration measurement was made under standard conditions in accordance with: BS EN 61029-1:2009+A11.
The declared vibration total value has been measured in accordance with a standard test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
The declared vibration total value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
(1.7) VIBRATION
WARNING: When using this machine the operator can be exposed to high levels of vibration transmitted to the hand and arm. It is possible that the operator could develop “Vibration white finger disease” (Raynaud syndrome). This condition can reduce the sensitivity of the hand to temperature as well as producing general numbness. Prolonged or regular users of this machine should monitor the condition of their hands and fingers closely. If any of the symptoms become evident, seek immediate medical advice.
• The measurement and assessment of human exposure to hand-transmitted vibration in the workplace is given in: BS EN ISO 5349-1:2001 and BS EN ISO 5349-2:2002.
• Many factors can influence the actual vibration level during operation e.g. the work surfaces condition and orientation and the type and condition of the machine being used. Before each use, such factors should be assessed, and where possible appropriate working practices adopted. Managing these factors can help reduce the effects of vibration:
Handling
• Handle the machine with care, allowing the machine to do the work.
• Avoid using excessive physical effort on any of the machines controls.
• Consider your security and stability, and the orientation of the machine during use.
Work Surface
• Consider the work surface material; its condition, density, strength, rigidity and orientation.
WARNING: The vibration emission during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared total value depending on the ways in which the tool is used. The need to identify safety measures and to protect the operator are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle, such as the times the tool is switched off, when it is running idle, in addition to trigger time).

(2.7) HEALTH ADVICE
WARNING: When using this machine, dust particles may be produced. In some instances, depending on the materials you are working with, this dust can be particularly harmful. If you suspect that paint on the surface of material you wish to cut contains lead, seek professional advice. Lead based paints should only be removed by a professional and you should not attempt to remove it yourself. Once the dust has been deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth contact can result in the ingestion of lead.
Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and nervous system damage. The young and unborn children are particularly vulnerable. You are advised to consider the risks associated with the materials you are working with and to reduce the risk of exposure. As some materials can produce dust that may be hazardous to your health, we recommend the use of an approved face mask with replaceable filters when using this machine.
You should always:
• Work in a well-ventilated area.
• Work with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter microscopic particles.
