WORKING CONDITION
1. Refrain from operating the blower
if you are tired, ill, or upset, or if
you are under the influence of al-
cohol, drugs or medication.
2. To reduce the risk of hearing loss
associated with sound level(s),
hearing protection is required.
3. To reduce the risk of injury asso-
ciated with thrown objects, al-
ways wear eye protection and
foot protection. Eye protection
should meet the requirements of
ANSI Z87.1.
4. To reduce the risk of injury asso-
ciated with the inhalation of dust,
use a face filter mask in dusty
conditions.
5. Wear sturdy rubber-soled shoes
or shoes with some other form of
anti-slip protection to help protect
you against falling.
6. To reduce the risk of injury asso-
ciated with objects being drawn
into rotating parts, do not wear
loose clothing, scarves, neck
chains, hair longer than shoulder
length, or other loose material.
7. Prolonged use of a blower, expos-
ing the operator to vibrations and
cold may produce whitefinger
disease (Raynaud’s phenom-
enon), which symptoms are tin-
gling and burning sensations fol-
lowed by loss of color and numb-
ness in the fingers. All factors
which contribute to whitefinger
disease are not known, but cold
weather, smoking diseases or
physical conditions as well as
long periods of exposure to vibra-
tion are mentioned as factors. In
order to reduce the risk of
whitefinger disease, the following
precautions are strongly recom-
mended;
a) Keep your body warm. Never use
blower during rains.
b) Wear thick anti-vibration gloves.
c) Take more than 5 minutes of break
in warm place frequently.
d) Maintain a firm grip at all times,
but do not squeeze the handles
with constant, excessive pres-
sures.
e) If you feel discomfort, redness
and swelling of your fingers or any
other part of your body, see a
doctor before getting worse.
