RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from
handheld tools may contribute to a condition
called Raynaud's Syndrome. Symptoms may
include tingling, numbness, and blanching of
the fi ngers, usually apparent upon exposure
to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold
and dampness, diet, smoking, and work
practices are all thought to contribute to the
development of these symptoms. There are
measures that can be taken by the operator to
possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
■
Keep your body warm in cold weather.
When operating the product, wear gloves
to keep the hands and wrists warm.
■
After each period of operation, exercise to
increase blood circulation.
■
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the
amount of exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this
condition, immediately discontinue use and
see your physician.
WARNING
Injuries may be caused or aggravated by
prolonged use of a tool. When using any
tool for prolonged periods, ensure you take
regular breaks.
