we will only use when we are not cutting with the
chainsaw with ascent and descent jobs.
The use of all these materials will reduce the risk of
injury caused by the projected debris or accidental
contact with the saw chain.
Additionally you should also take with you:
- Safety harness for climbing and working at heights
according to the standard EN 341, EN-361-365,
the sling chainsaw, carabineers, ropes and tapes
(in the case of pruning height).
- Tools
- Signage tape for the work area.
- Mobile phone (to use in case of emergency).
2.2.2. VIBRATIONS
Prolonged use of this machine exposes user to
vibrations It can lead to the “white fingers” disease
(Raynaud’s Phenomenon). This disease reduces
the hand’s sense of touch and the ability to adjust
the temperature, creating a lack of sensibility in the
fingers and a burning sensation. This disease can
cause nerve and circulation problems, and even
necrosis in the hands.
A high level of vibration and long periods of exposure
are factors that contribute to the “white fingers”
disease. In order to reduce the risk of the “white
fingers” disease, it is necessary to take into account
these recommendations:
• Always wear gloves.
• Make sure to always have warm hands.
• Make sure that the chain is always sharpened.
• Take frequent breaks.
• Always firmly hold the machine by the handles.
If you detect any “white fingers” disease symptoms
immediately consult your doctor.
