Vibration precautions
This tool vibrates during use. Re-
peated or long-term exposure to vibra-
tion may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands,
arms and shoulders. To reduce the risk of
vibration-related injury:
Anyone using vibrating tools regu- 1.
larly or for an extended period should
first be examined by a doctor and
then have regular medical check-
ups to ensure medical problems are
not being caused or worsened from
use. Pregnant women or people
who have impaired blood circulation
to the hand, past hand injuries, ner-
vous system disorders, diabetes, or
Raynaud’s Disease should not use
this tool. If you feel any medical or
physical symptoms related to vibra-
tion (such as tingling, numbness, and
white or blue fingers), seek medical
advice as soon as possible.
Do not smoke during use. Nico-
2.
tine reduces the blood supply to the
hands and fingers, increasing the risk
of vibration-related injury.
Wear suitable gloves to reduce the
3.
vibration effects on the user.
Use tools with the lowest vibration
4.
when there is a choice between dif-
ferent processes.
Include vibration-free periods each
5.
day of work.
Grip tool as lightly as possible (while
6.
still keeping safe control of it). Let
the tool do the work.
To reduce vibration, maintain tool as
7.
explained in this manual. If abnormal
vibration occurs, stop immediately.
