syndrome affecting the fingers of certain individu-
als may be brought about by exposure to vibration
and cold. Exposure to vibration and cold may cause
tingling and burning sensations followed by loss of
colour and numbness of the fingers. The following
precautions are strongly recommended as the mini-
mum exposure which might trigger the condition is
unknown.
• Keep your body warm, especially the head, neck,
feet, ankles, hands and wrists. Maintain good blood
circulation by performing vigorous arm exercises
during frequent work breaks and also by not smok-
ing.
• Limit the hours of operation. Try to fill each day with
jobs where operating the brush cutter or other hand-
held power equipment is not permanently required.
• If you experience discomfort, redness and swelling
of the fingers followed by whitening and loss of feel-
ing, consult your physician before further exposing
yourself to cold and vibration.
• Always wear ear protection, loud noise over a long-
er time may make cause hearing defects or even
deafness.
• Full face and head protection must be worn to pre-
vent injuries from falling objects or branches.
• Wear grip-safe heavy-duty work gloves to improve
your grip on the brush cutter handle. Gloves also re-
duce the transmission of vibrations to your hands.
• WARNING: The operating range of the cutter is still
dangerous while the device is coasting to a halt.
