OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The product has an overload protection
device that is activated when overheating or
a current spike occurs, automatically shutting
down power within the product. To resume
operation, disconnect the product from the
power supply, wait for about 15 minutes, and
re-connect the product to the power supply.
RESIDUAL RISKS
It has been reported that vibrations from hand-
held tools may contribute to a condition called
Raynaud’s Syndrome in certain individuals.
Symptoms may include tingling, numbness
and blanching of the fi ngers, 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 unit 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. If you
experience any of the symptoms of this
condition, immediately discontinue use and
see your physician about these symptoms.
