Specifications9-39EAU51132For Europe onlyThe figures quoted are emission levelsand are not necessarily safe workinglevels. Whilst there is a correlation be-tween the emission and exposure lev-els, this cannot be used reliably todetermine whether or not further pre-cautions are required. Factors that in-fluence the actual level of exposure ofwork-force include the characteristicsof the work room, the other sources ofnoise, etc. i.e. the number of machinesand other adjacent processes, and thelength of time for which an operator isexposed to the noise. Also the permis-sible exposure level can vary fromcountry. This information, however, willenable the user of the machine to makea better evaluation of the hazard andrisk.
