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 fingers,
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.
It is presently unknown what, if any, vibrations or extent
of exposure may contribute to the condition. There are
measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly
reduce the effects of vibration:

Syndrome.
