The exposure to the vibrations is the cause of
the white finger syndrome. To minimise this
effect as much as possible, follow the following
recommendations:
• Always use gloves
• Always have your hands warm
• Take frequent breaks
• Always hold the machine tightly by the handles
If you detect any of the symptoms of the white finger
syndrome, consult immediately with your doctor.
2.3. SECURITY IN THE WORKPLACE
Maintain the working area always clean and only
work with good illumination. Untidy and dark work
places cause accidents.
Do not work with the machine in areas with an
explosive atmosphere or near inflammable liquids,
gases or dust.
Do not start the machine in a closed area. The exhaust
fumes, the vapours of the petrol and the chain oil,
all contain carbon monoxide and other dangerous
chemical substances. In case of gas concentration
due to insufficient ventilation, eliminate from the
work area everything that impedes the correct flow of
air and do not work in this area again until it is well
ventilated and the gas concentration does not happen
again.
Maintain children and passers-by well clear when
working with the machine. Distractions can cause a
lack of control. Ensure that neither children, passers-
by nor animals enter the working area.
2.4. SECURITY WHEN USING FUEL
IMPORTANT: The fuel used is highly inflammable.
If the fuel or the machine catch fire, fight the flames
with a dry dust fire extinguisher.
Always avoid eye contact with the fuel and the oil. If
petrol or oil were to come into contact with your eyes,
clean these immediately with clean water. If your eyes
are still irritated, visit the doctor immediately.
Gasoline and oil are extremely flammable
and explosive under certain conditions. Do
not smoke while preparing or refueling.
Do not approach any flame or hot element
to the fuel. Do not smoke when handling
fuel, when refilling or when working.
Do not refill fuel in areas where flames,
sparks or hot sources are. Refill only in
ventilated areas with engine off. Do not
overfill the fuel to try to overfill the fuel tank. In case
of fuel leakage, eliminate these before starting the
machine, do not attempt to start the engine but move
the machine away from the area of spillage and avoid
creating any source of ignition until petrol vapours
have dissipated.
Do not refill fuel in closed areas or near flames.
Refill fuel before to start the machine. Do not unscrew
the combustible tank cap while the engine is running
or engine is hot.
Make sure the gas cap is properly closed while
operating the machine. Be sure to properly close the
gas cap after refueling.
Store fuel in a bottle or tank homologated and
according to current regulations.
