Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of 
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending 
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may 
increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety 
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly 
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration 
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the 
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of the 
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off 
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.
