Vibration Safety

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. To reduce the risk of vibration-

related injury:

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 or

worsened from use. Pregnant women or people

who have impaired blood circulation to the hand,

past hand injuries, nervous system disorders,

diabetes, or Raynaud’s Disease should not use this

tool. If you feel any medical or physical symptoms

related to vibration (such as tingling, numbness,

and white or blue fingers), seek medical advice as

soon as possible.

2.

Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the

blood supply 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 vibration when there is a

choice between different processes.

5.

Include vibration-free periods each day of work.

6.

Let the tool do the work.

7.

To reduce vibration, maintain the tool as explained

in this manual. If any abnormal vibration occurs,

stop use immediately.
