RESIDUAL RISKS

Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still
impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk
factors. The following hazards may arise in use and
the operator should pay special attention to avoid the
following:
■ Injury caused by vibration
– Hold the product by designated handles and restrict
working time and exposure.
■ Exposure to noise can cause hearing injury
– Wear hearing protection and limit exposure.
■ Eye injury due to flying debris
– Wear eye protection at all times.
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. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor
contributing to Raynaud's Syndrome.
■ After each period of operation, exercise to increase
blood circulation.
■ Ensure that the product is correctly located in a
designated working position before operating the
product.
■ 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.
