7. Prolonged use of a blower, exposing the operator to
vibrations and cold, may produce whitefinger disease
(Raynaud’s phenomenon), the symptoms of which include
tingling and burning sensations followed by loss of color and
numbness in the fingers. All factors which contribute to
whitefinger disease are not known, but cold weather,
smoking diseases or physical conditions as well as long
periods of exposure to vibration are mentioned as factors. In
order to reduce the risk of whitefinger disease, the following
precautions are strongly recommended
a)Keep your body warm. Avoid using the
blower during rain.
b) Take more than 5 minutes of break
in a warm place frequently.
c)Maintain a firm grip at all times, but
do not squeeze the handles with
constant, excessive pressure.
d)If you feel discomfort, redness and
swelling of your fingers or any
other part of your body, see a doctor before it gets worse.
8. The ignition system of your unit produces an electromagnetic
field of a very low intensity. This field may interfere with some
pacemakers. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury,
people with pacemaker should consult their physician and
the pacemaker manufacturer before operating this tool.
WORKING CIRCUMSTANCE
