The vibration levels indicated were measured
according to a standardized test method and can
be used as a basis for comparing electric power
tools. The vibration levels actually occurring may
vary from the values indicated, depending on the
type of application. The vibration levels indicated
can be used for an initial estimate of the vibration
stress. The actual vibration stress has to be esti‐
mated. The times when the power tool is
switched off and the times when it is switched on
but running under no load can be taken into
account in the estimate.
