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:

Anyone using vibrating tools regularly or for

1.

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.

Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces

the blood supply to the hands and fingers,

increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.

Wear suitable gloves to reduce the vibration

effects on the user.

Use tools with the lowest vibration when

there is a choice between different

processes.

Include vibration-free periods each day of
