Comparison Makita SG1251J vs Makita SG1250

Approximate noise level produced by the instrument during operation (actual volume may vary depending on performance).

The lower the noise, the more comfortable the use of the tool, the easier it is to work with it without headphones or other noise protection equipment. It is easiest to evaluate a specific volume level using comparative tables. In general, wall chasers and jointers are quite noisy equipment — in most models, the volume exceeds 90 dB (loudness comparable to the sound of a moving freight car at 7 m), and in the most noisy this figure reaches 118 – 119 dB, which is only slightly below the human pain threshold . If the volume is more than 100 dB, it is highly recommended to use protective headphones or earplugs.
