Do not let others use this device unless these persons have been fully instructed, have
read and understood the device manual and have been trained in the operation of the
device.
More extended use of the device exposes the user to vibrations, which can
lead to white finger disease (Raynaud's syndrome) or carpal tunnel
syndrome. This condition reduces the hand's ability to feel and regulate
temperatures, causes numbness and heat sensations and can lead to nerve and
circulatory damage and tissue death.
Not all factors leading to white finger disease are known. Still, cold weather, smoking
and other diseases affecting the blood vessels and blood circulation, as well as extensive
or prolonged exposure to shocks are mentioned as factors in the development of white
finger disease. To reduce the risk of white finger disease and carpal tunnel syndrome,
please note the following
●
Wear gloves and keep your hands warm
●
Take regular breaks
All the above precautions cannot exclude the risk of white finger disease or carpal tunnel
syndrome. Long-term and regular users are, therefore recommended to monitor the
condition of their hands and fingers closely. Consult a doctor immediately if any of the
above symptoms occur.
The operating noise of the tool may damage your hearing. Wear a
sound-proofing (Oropax or ear muffs) to protect it. Long-term and
regular users are recommended to check your hearing regularly. Be
especially vigilant and careful when wearing hearing protection as it limits your
ability to hear warnings (cries, alarms, etc.).
WARNING:
Some noise exposure from this device cannot be avoided. Do not
work in noisy environments during approved and designated times. If necessary,
observe rest periods and limit the working time to the absolute minimum. For your
protection and protection of persons in the vicinity, wear suitable hearing protection.
