Ear protection
This machine generates noise that exceeds the country-specific permissible noise levels (individual
rating level). It may therefore be necessary to wear ear protection. You can find the exact value in the
chapter Technical Data.
When wearing ear protection while working, you must pay attention and exercise caution because your
hearing is limited, e.g. in case someone screams or a signal tone sounds.
Wacker Neuson recommends that you always wear ear protection.
