Vibration Safety
This tool vibrates during use. Re-
peated or long-term exposure to vibra-
tion 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 regu- 1.
larly 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, ner-
vous system disorders, diabetes, or
Raynaud’s Disease should not use
this tool. If you feel any medical or
physical symptoms related to vibra-
tion (such as tingling, numbness, and
white or blue fingers), seek medical
advice as soon as possible.
Do not smoke during use. Nico- 2.
tine reduces the blood supply to the
hands and fingers, increasing the risk
of vibration-related injury.
Wear suitable gloves to reduce the
3.
vibration effects on the user.
Use tools with the lowest vibration
4.
when there is a choice between dif-
ferent processes.
