Danger
Long hours of using the appliance can
cause circulation problems on account of
vibrations.
It is not possible to specify a generally valid
operation time, since this depends on sev-
eral factors:
–
Proneness to blood circulation deficien-
cies (frequently cold extremities, tin-
gling, numbness).
–
Low ambient temperature. Wear warm
clothes to protect the affected body
parts.
–
A firm grip impedes blood circulation.
–
Continuous operation is worse than an
operation interrupted by pauses.
In case of regular, long-term operation of
the device and in case of repeated occur-
rence of the symptoms (e.g. tingling, numb-
ness in certain body parts) please consult a
physician.
