syndrome.
The extent of exposure depending on the type of work or
machine use should be estimated and appropriate breaks taken.
In this way, the extent of exposure can be considerably reduced
over the entire work time. Minimise the risk caused by vibrations.
Maintain this machine according to the instructions in the
