INFLUENCE OF PUMP PRESSURE AND ENGINE SPEED ON ERGONOMIC PARAMETERS OF FORWARDER OPERATORS

INFLUENCE OF PUMP PRESSURE AND ENGINE SPEED ON ERGONOMIC PARAMETERS OF FORWARDER OPERATORS

ABSTRACT Reducing engine speed and pressure of forest machine hydraulic pumps may be a strategy to achieve a reduction in fuel costs. However, this approach can positively or negatively affect the ergonomic parameters of the operators, in particular, the whole-body vibration and repetitive movements...
