The employer is responsible for adhering to the legal requirements concerning workplace Health & Safety and for evaluation of the actual vibration levels by making the appropriate calculations specific to the application and jobsite conditions. DEWALT cannot accept any respective liability.
National regulations may differ from those outlined in this website. DEWALT cannot accept any liability resulting from incompleteness of the information in this documentation.
All vibration and noise values and calculations contained in this site are based on measurements using DEWALT tools and consumables (bits, chisels, blades, discs, nails etc). The measurements were carried out following the appropriate standards.
The vibration emission level for power tools given in this information has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN60745 or EN61029 and may be used to compare one tool with another.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or is poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
The sound pressure and sound power values for portable electric power tools were determined in accordance with standard EN60745 and for transportable electric power tools in accordance with standard EN61029.
Follow National requirements for dust – for the materials you want to work with.
The vibration, noise and dust values are therefore to be used as a guide only. The employer is responsible for adhering to legal requirements applicable to the workplace Health & Safety and for evaluation of the actual vibration, noise and dust levels by taking the appropriate on-site measurements.
