Has anyone any ideas how to get a reading on Whole Body Vibration on machinery. The machines are agricultural/horticultural.
I have looked on the HSE web site where there is a WBV calculator, I am just needing any feedback from people who may have carried out such an assessment.

We have carried out WBV dose measurement on FLT's - if you drop me a mail I'll send details of the consultant we used

I'm trying to imagine Vibration White Body instead of Vibration White Finger. Scary!

It is possible and with the expected regualtions coming soon due to European directions.

There is a piece of kit that does this, using a vibration meter and accelerometer, needs competence to use and interpret.
Can provide direction and guidance if needed, send email if required.
