2.7 Working above floor level
Personnel must be protected from falling. Observe the national, state, and local
regulations, and company policies when working above the floor level.
2.8 Sound pressure level
Fig. 3
The sound pressure level was measured at a distance of 3 ft from the wire rope hoist.
The mean sound pressure level is calculated for one operating cycle (50% with maximum
permissible load, 50% without load).
Instead of stating an emission value based on a workplace, the values from Tab. 1 and
Tab. 2 at measuring distance “h” can be used.
