Emissions
Noise emissions
The noise specifications in the technical data
were determined according to CEN standard
"Noise measurement of industrial trucks,
sound level at the workplace and sound power
level" (in preparation). The sound power level
at the driver’s station is 65 dB(A).
According to directive 86/
188/EEC, however,
the specified truck noise le
vels cannot be
used for determining the no
ise emission at the
workplace (daily personal
noise allowance).
If required, these must be d
etermined directly
at the workplace under act
ually existing
influences (further sourc
es of noise, special
operating conditions, so
und reflections).
Frequency characterist
ics
The machine frequencies were determined
on an identical machine in accordance with
EN 13059. "Safety industrial trucks. Test
methods for measuring vibration".

Studies have shown t
hat the frequency of
hand and arm vibrati
ons at fork truck steering
wheels or controls i
s under 2.5 m/s². For this
reason no test speci
fications are available for
these measurements
.
The personal vibration load on the driver
for one work day must be determined, if
necessary, at the site of operation in order
to take all other influencing factors such as
road stretch, intensity of operation, etc., into
consideration.
Battery emissions
During charging, the drive battery emits a
mixture of oxygen and hydrogen (detonating
gas). This gas mixture is explosive and it must
not be ignited. The risk of explosion can be
