RESIDUAL RISKS

Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to
completely eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards
may arise during use, and the operator should pay special attention to
avoid the following:
■
injury caused by vibration
– Hold the product by the designated handles, and restrict
working time and exposure.
■
injury caused by exposure to noise
– Wear hearing protection, and limit exposure.
■
injury caused by flying debris
– Wear eye protection at all times.

RISK REDUCTION

It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools may contribute
to a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome. Symptoms may include
tingling, numbness, and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent upon
exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness,
diet, smoking, and work practices are all thought to contribute to the
development of these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken
by the operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
■
Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the product,
wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that
cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud's Syndrome.
■
After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation.
■
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.
WARNING! Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by prolonged
use of the product. When using the product for prolonged periods,
ensure that you take regular breaks.
