The noise emission level that is stated is the declared (upper limit) sound power level, in decibels, for a
random sample of machines. All measurements are made in accordance with ISO 7779 and reported in
conformance with ISO 9296.
Acoustical Declaration with Noise Hazard Notice
Figure 82 on page 99 indicates the declared noise emissions values in accordance with ISO 9296.
