NOISE LEVELS AS PERCEIVED BY THE OPERATOR
The following tables give the noise level values, measured from the driver’s seat in instantaneous conditions in compliance with
standards 2009/76/EC(dBA) - annex II (without load) - and when driving by in compliance with standard 2009/63/EC(dBA).
※Note: Data supplied by the manufacturer, approval values pending.
More information on Whole Body Vibration (WBV) on agricultural tractors can be found in more specic
publications and the relative risks can be taken into account following the laws of the country. In order to
correctly estimate statistical values based on your daily work on the tractor, a specic measure instrument
is required, such a three-axis accelerometer applied to the seat
IMPORTANT
The vibration level transmitted to the body as a whole depend on different parameters, some of them relating to
the machine, others to the terrain and many specic for the operator. The prevailing parameters are the type of
terrain or work surface and the ground speed.
Vibrations cause discomfort for the operator and in some cases put his/her health and safety at risk.
Make sure that the tractor is in good condition and that all routine servicing is correctly and regularly carried out.
Check tire pressure and the steering and braking systems.
Check that the operator's seat and adjustment systems are in good condition, then adjust the seat to the
operator's weight and size.
