VIBRATION

The

European

Physical

Agents

(Vibration)

Directive

has

been

brought

in

to

help

reduce

hand

arm

vibration

syndrome

injuries

to

power

tool

users.

The

directive

requires

power

tool

manufacturers

and

suppliers

to

provide

indicative

vibration

test

results

to

enable

users

to

make

informed

decisions

as

to

the

period

of

time

a

power

tool

can

be

used

safely

on

a

daily

basis

and

the

choice

of

tool.

The declared vibration emission value should be used as a minimum level and should be

used with the current guidance on vibration.

Calculating the actual period of the actual period off use can be difficult and the HSE

website has further information.

The declared vibration emission been measured in accordance with a standard listed test

stated above and may be used to compare one tool with another. The declared vibration

emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING! The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can

differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used and

dependant on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used:

• How the tool is used and the materials being ground or cut.

• The tool being in good condition and well maintained.

• The use of the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good

condition. The tightness of the grip on the handles.

• And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.

This

tool

may

cause

hand-arm

vibration

syndrome

if

its

use

is

not

adequately

managed. This tool should not be used for extended periods of time.

WARNING!

Identify

safety

measures

to

protect

the

operator

that

are

based

on

an

estimation

of

exposure

in

the

actual

conditions

of

use

(taking

account

of

all

parts

of

the

operating

cycle

such

as

the

times

when

the

tool

is

switched

off

and

when

it

is

running

idle

in

addition

to

the

trigger

time).

Note:

The

use

of

other

tools

may

reduce or increase

the

user’s

total

working period

on

this

tool. Using another tool with a similar vibration emission would

be equivalent to working for a longer period with this tool, while working with a machine with

no vibration emission might be equivalent to taking a break.

Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk

Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate).

Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10°C or less.

Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days, or at least

allow for breaks, or time spent using other tools that do not vibrate.

Health Surveillance

All

employees

should

be

part

of

an

employer’s

health

surveillance

scheme

to

help

identity

any

vibration

related

diseases

at

an

early

stage,

prevent

disease

progression

and

help

employees

stay

in

work.
