WARNING!
Danger due to vibration
The actual magnitude of
the vibration emissions
during the use of the appli-
ance may deviate from
that stated by the manu-
facturer. Observe the fol-
lowing influencing factors
before or during use:
■
Is the appliance being
used as intended?
■
Is the material being cut
or processed in the
proper manner?
■
Is the appliance in a
proper condition of use?
■
Is the cutting tool prop-
erly sharpened or is the
correct cutting tool in-
stalled?
■
Are the handle grips
and any optional vibra-
tion grips mounted, and
are they firmly attached
to the appliance?
■
Only operate the appliance at
the motor speed required for
the respective work. Avoid us-
ing the maximum speed in or-
der to reduce noise and vibra-
tions.

■
The noise and vibrations of
the appliance can increase
due to improper use and
maintenance. This leads to
damage of the health. In this
case, immediately switch off
the appliance and have it re-
paired by an authorised ser-
vice workshop.
■
The degree of stress due to
vibration depends on the work
to be performed or on the use
that the appliance is put to.
Estimate the stress and plan
appropriate work breaks. This
considerably reduces stress
due to vibration over the en-
tire working time.
■
Extensive use of the appli-
ance exposes the operator to
vibrations, which can lead to
circulatory issues ("white fin-
gers"). To avoid this risk, wear
gloves and keep your hands
warm. If any symptoms of
"white fingers" occur, immedi-
ately consult a physician.
These symptoms include:
Numbness, loss of feeling,
tingling, itching, pain, reduced
muscular strength, changes in
the colour or condition of the
skin. Normally these condi-
tions affect the fingers, hands
or pulse. The risk increases at
low temperatures.
