Residual risks
Even when the device is used properly and all safety
regulations are complied with, there still may be
some residual risks.
• Hearing damage
A longer stay in the immediate vicinity of the
running unit may cause hearing damage. Wear ear
protectors
!
• Damage to health arising from vibrations to hand
and arms if the device is used for a long time or if
the device is not guided and evaluated properly.
• Vibration damping systems are no guaranteed
protection against white finger disease or carpal
tunnel syndrome. Therefore, it is necessary to care-
fully check the state of your fingers and wrist if you
have regularly used the appliance for a long time. If
any symptom of the diseases above appears, seek
medical advice immediately. To reduce the white
finger disease risk, keep your hands warm and take
regular breaks during your work.
Despite the observance of the operating instructions
there still may be some hidden residual risks.
