the entire work process, i.e. even times during which the
power tool works without load or is switched off.
Suitable measures include, amongst others, regular main-
tenance and care of the power tool and the attachments,
regular breaks as well as good planning of the work pro-
cesses.
STATEMENT CONCERNING DUST EMISSION
The values for dust emission measured according to
the "Principles for testing dust emission (concentration
parameters) from wood processing machines" created
by the Technical Committee Wood, lie below 2 mg/m3.
That means a permanently safe compliance with the TRK
threshold value for wood dust, applicable in the Federal
Republic of Germany can be expected when the power
tool is connected to an appropriate operational extraction
unit with an air speed of at least 20 m/s.
