white finger disease (Raynaud's syndrome) or carpal tunnel syndrome.
These conditions reduce the hand's ability to feel and regulate temperature, produce numbness and
may cause nerve and circulation damage and tissue necrosis.
All factors that contribute to the white finger disease are not known.
Some of the factors mentioned in the development of the white finger disease are: cold weather,
smoking and diseases or physical conditions that affect blood vessels and blood transportation, as
well as, high vibration levels and long periods of exposure to vibration.
To help in the prevention and reducing the risk of the white finger disease, please note the following:
-- wear gloves and keep your hands warm;
-- maintain a firm grip at all times, but do not squeeze the handles with constant pressure,
-- take frequent pauses
The operator should closely monitor the condition of their hands and fingers, and if any of the
symptoms appear, seek medical advice immediately.
TO PROTECT YOUR BODY FROM VIBRATION
Please observe the following matter, in order to protect the health of your body.
1. Always use the right tool for each job (to do the job more quickly and expose you to less hand-arm
vibration).
2. Check tools before using them to make sure they have been properly maintained and repaired to
avoid increased vibration caused by faults or general wear.
3. Make sure cutting tools are kept sharp so that they remain efficient.
4. Reduce the amount of time you use a tool in one go, by doing other jobs in between.
5. Avoid gripping or forcing a tool or workpiece more than you have to.
6. Store tools so that they do not have very cold handles when next used.
7. Encourage good blood circulation by:
• keeping warm and dry (when necessary, wear gloves, a hat, waterproofs and use heating pads if
available);
• giving up or cutting down on smoking because smoking reduces blood flow;
• massaging and exercising your fingers
