Vibration figures

[David Humphries]

I'm carrying out an HAVS exposure review for all the operators of vibration equipment on the team

& need to get hold of the Vibration figures from the operating manuals of the;

 

MS200t & 084 AV

 

Which I appear to have mislaid

 

 

 

Can anyone help?

Have you got the exciting job of standing, watching with the stopwatch in hand ?

just had a quick look and there arent any in the 084 manual, dont you have to have the saws independantly tested as the published HAVS figures are for new saws on low vib chains,

No, that lucky job went to a nice lady from down in the City, Ive got a spread sheet full of vibration magnitude m/s2 r.m.s figures for pretty much every single machine ever manufactured......apart from the two listed

 

I've now got the futile task of putting together each team members exposure duration to these machines..........Oh joy !

Cheers for looking Charlie.

I found a web copy for the ms200, and that doesn't have owt listed either:confused1:

 

As I said in the reply above, this is just a paper exercise to give us some ball park figures to work with, which will be reviewed, (i hope).

 

There's no way I can get together exact figures for all the team members exposure times for each & every machine.

 

I'm not colossus

The 084 will get around a 4 minute per day rating I'd imagine. However I have a special deal for local authorities, for a small fee I will take it off your hands and dispose of it safely.

4 minutes!

 

Could anyone really stick to that and not cost each big takedown at half a million quid?

 

Its just a bleedin good job I dont have to care about such things

 

 

 

Any idea on how long we are supposed to use a MS200T Mr Monkey?

Mr Hancock has some figures on this thread
