of heat and can lead to damage to the nervous system and the circulatory system and to necrosis.
- Not all factors that lead to Raynaud's syndrome are known but cold water, smoking and illnesses that impact the
blood vessels and the circulatory system as well as severe or long-lasting exposure to vibrations are known to be
factors in the development of Raynaud's syndrome. Observe the following in order to reduce the risk of Raynaud's
syndrome and Carpal tunnel syndrome:
- Wear gloves and keep your hands warm.
- Make sure the device is well maintained. A tool with loose components or with damaged or worn-out dampers will
have a disposition towards increased vibrations.
- Always hold the handle firmly but do not clutch it constantly with excessive force. Take breaks often.
