WARNING
The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and
may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level
represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for dierent applications, with dierent accessories or poorly maintained,
the vibration emission may dier. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched o or when it is running but
not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the
hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

gloves when changing bits. Keep hands away from the
cutting area at all times. Never hold the workpiece being
cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece
whenever possible.
RISK REDUCTION
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 environments.
Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking and
work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of
the these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the
operator to possibly reduce the eects of vibration:
■ Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit
wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported
that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s
Syndrome.
■ After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood
circulation.
■ Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately
discontinue use and see your doctor.
WARNING! Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by prolonged
use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods, ensure you
take regular breaks.
