Vibration Levels
The following table shows typical Whole-Body Vibra-
tion levels for Gehl skid-steer loaders.
Typical Whole-Body Vibration Levels*
*Vibration levels were recorded using a range of skid-steer loader models driven by
an experienced operator on flat conditioned soil and handling gravel in the
activities indicated. For additional vibration data, refer to ISO TR 25398.
The data above indicates that Gehl skid-steer loaders, when used in a similar
manner as described above, do not exceed the limit value for Whole-Body Vibra-
tions, and can therefore be operated by one operator for at least 8 hours per day.
Note: When the skid-steer loader is operated in accordance with the instructions
in the operator’s manual, the hand-arm vibration levels are below the exposure
action value of 2.5 m/s
