tions through prolonged use of gasoline
powered hand tools could cause blood

culation disorders or abnormal swelling.
Prolonged use in cold weather has been

wise healthy people. If symptoms occur
such as numbness, pain, loss of
strength, change in skin color or texture,
or loss of feeling in the fingers, hands, or
joints, discontinue the use of this tool
and seek medical attention. An

the avoidance of these problems. Users
who operate power tools on a continual
and regular basis must monitor closely
their physical condition and the condition
of this tool.
