VIBRATION AND COLD
It is believed that a condition called Raynaud’s Phenom-
enon which affects the fingers of certain individuals may
be brought about by exposure to vibration and cold.
Exposure to vibration and cold may cause tingling and
burning, followed by loss of colour and numbness in the
fingers.
The following precautions are strongly recommended
because the minimum exposure which might trigger the
ailment is unknown.
• Keep your body warm, especially the head and neck,
feet and ankles, and hands and wrists.
• Maintain good blood circulation by performing
vigorous arm exercises during frequent work breaks,
and also by not smoking.
• Limit the number of hours of operation.
Try to fill each day with jobs where operating the
trimmer or other hand-held power equipment is not
required.
• If you experience discomfort redness and swelling of
the fingers, followed by whitening and loss of feeling,
consult your physician before exposing yourself
further to cold and vibration.

REPETITIVE STRESS INJURIES
It is believed that over-using the muscles and tendons of
the fingers, hands, arms and shoulders may cause
soreness, swelling, numbness, weakness and extreme
pain to the areas just mentioned. Certain repetitive hand
activities may put you at a high risk for developing a
repetitive stress injury (RSI).
To reduce the risk of RSI, do the following:
• Avoid using your wrist in a bent, extended or twisted
position.
• Take periodic breaks to minimize repetition and rest
your hands. Reduce the speed and force in which
you do the repetitive movement.
• Do exercises to strengthen hand and arm muscles.
• See a doctor if you feel tingling, numbness or pain in
your fingers, hands, wrists or arms. The sooner RSI
is diagnosed, the more likely permanent nerve and
muscle damage can be prevented.
