vessel or nerve damage in the fingers, hands, and joints of people prone to circulation disorders or abnormal swelling.
Prolonged use in cold weather has been linked to blood vessel damage in otherwise 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 use of this tool and seek medical attention. An anti-vibration system does not guarantee avoidance of these
problems. Users who operate power tools on a regular basis must closely monitor their physical condition and the
condition of this tool.
