s . In combination with pole extension (2.445-247.0):
ah=5,6 m/s², K=1,5 m/s². Sound emission values deter-
mined according to EN 62841-2-11.Typically the A-
weighted sound power level of the product is 94 dB(A)
and the sound pressure level is 83 dB(A), K=3 dB and
in combination with pole extension (2.445-247.0). A
weightend sound power level is 91 db(A) and the sound
pressure level is 82 dB(A), K=3 dB. Wear hearing pro-
tection!
The vibration level given in these instructions has been
measured according to a standardised measurement
procedure in EN 62841and can be used for comparing
power tools with each other. It is also suitable for a pre-
liminary assessment of the vibration load.
WARNING
The vibration and noise emission levels may vary from the
level specified during actual use, depending on the way in
which the power tool is used, especially the type of workpiece
it is used for.
