LEVER 3442331 - Caterpillar

Sound Level Information
Hearing protection may be needed when the machine is operated for extended periods or in a noisy environment.Sound Level Information for Machines in European Union Countries and in Countries that Adopt the "EU Directives" (S/N: LJD1-UP)
The dynamic operator sound pressure level is 79 dB(A) when "ISO6396: 2008" is used.The average exterior sound power level is 93 dB(A) when the "ISO 6395 - Dynamic Test" procedure is used to measure the value for the standard machine.The machine sound power level meets the criteria that are specified in "European Directive 2000/14 EC" modified by "2005/88/EC".The uncertainty is 0.8 dB(A) and meets "ISO 4871". The sound pressure level at the operators ear had been measured according to "85/532/EWG", "89/514/EWG", and "95/27/EWG". All measurements were carried out on an asphalted surface."The European Union Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive 2002/44/EC"
Vibration Data for Compact Track Excavator
Information Concerning Hand/Arm Vibration Level
When the machine is operated according to the intended use, the hand/arm vibration of this machine is below 2.5 m/s2.Information Concerning Whole Body Vibration Level
This section provides vibration data and a method for estimating the vibration level for Compact track excavators.Note: Vibration levels are influenced by many different parameters. Many items are listed below.
Operator training, behavior, mode and stress
Job site organization, preparation, environment, weather and material
Machine type, quality of the seat, quality of the suspension system, attachments and condition of the equipmentIt is not possible to get precise vibration levels for this machine. The expected vibration levels can be estimated with the information in Table 1 in order to calculate the daily vibration exposure. A simple evaluation of the machine application can be used.Estimate the vibration levels for the three vibration directions. For typical operating conditions, use the average vibration levels as the estimated level. With an experienced operator and smooth terrain, subtract the Scenario Factors from the average vibration level in order to obtain the estimated vibration level. For aggressive operations and severe terrain, add the Scenario Factors to the average vibration level in order to obtain the estimated vibration level.Note: All vibration levels are in meter per second squared.

This publication uses data that is measured by international institutes, organizations, and manufacturers. This document provides information about the whole body exposure of operators of earthmoving equipment. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, SEBU8257, "The European Union Physical Agents (Vibration) Directive 2002/44/EC" for more information about machine vibration levels.Guidelines for Reducing Vibration Levels on Earthmoving Equipment
