VIBRATION HAZARD

This tool vibrates during use. Repeated 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 regularly 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, nervous system disorders, diabetes, or

Raynaud’s Disease should not use this tool. If you feel any medical or

physical symptoms related to vibration (such as tingling, numbness, and

white or blue fingers), seek medical advice as soon as possible.

Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood supply to the

hands and fingers, increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.

Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.

Use tools with the lowest vibration when there is a choice between dif-

ferent processes.
