(1.6) Note: The vibration measurement
was made under standard conditions in
accordance with: BS EN 61029-1:2009.

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).

(1.8) LABELS & SYMBOLS

WARNING: Do not operate this machine

if warning and/or instruction labels are
missing or damaged. Contact Evolution
Power Tools for replacement labels.

Note: All or some of the following symbols
may appear in the manual or on the product.
