Vibration And Noise Reduction
To reduce the impact of noise and
vibration emission, limit the time of
operation, use low-vibration and
low-noise operating modes as well as
wear personal protective equipment.
The prolonged use of the product,
exposes the client to vibrations that in
extreme cases and through many hours
of use of the product could cause the
"white finger syndrome" also known as
Raynaud phenomenon, This causes a
reduction in the tact of the fingers and
their capacity to regulate temperature
generating a lack of sensibility.This
sickness could in extreme cases cause
problems with the nerve endings.
The exposure to the vibrations is the
cause of the white finger syndrome,
To minimise this effect as much as
possible, follow the following
recommendations:

applicable rest times and limit your
working time to the necessary
minimum time. For your personal
protection and the protection of
people nearby, suitable hearing
protection must be worn.To reduce
the impact of noise and vibration
emission, limit the time of
operation, use low-vibration and
low-noise operating modes as well
as wear personal protective
equipment.
