VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or permanent
physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
1. Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for an extended period should first be examined by a doctor and
then have regular medical check-ups to ensure medical problems are not being caused by or worsened from
tool use. Pregnant women or people who have impaired blood circulation to the hands, past hand injuries,
nervous system disorders, diabetes or Raynaud's Disease should not use this tool. If you feel any medical
symptoms related to vibrations (such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers), seek medical
attention as soon as possible.
2. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood flow to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk of
vibration-related injury.
3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration effects on the user.
4. Use tools with the lowest amount of vibration when there is a choice between different processes.
5. Do not use for extended periods. Take frequent breaks when using this tool.
6. Let the tool do the work. Grip the tool as lightly as possible (while still keeping safe control of it).
7. To reduce vibrations, maintain the tool as explained in this manual. If abnormal vibrations occur, stop using
this tool immediately.
