Prolonged use of the device exposes the user to shocks that can lead to
white finger disease (Raynaud's syndrome) or carpal tunnel syndrome. This
condition reduces the hand's ability to sense and regulate temperature,
causes numbness and heat sensations, and can lead to nerve and circulatory damage
and tissue death.
Not all factors leading to white finger disease are known. Still, cold weather, smoking,
and other conditions affecting the blood vessels and blood circulation, as well as
extensive or prolonged exposure to shocks, are mentioned as factors in the development
of white finger disease. To reduce the risk of white finger disease and carpal tunnel
syndrome, please note the following
● Wear gloves and keep your hands warm.
● Take regular breaks.
All the above precautions cannot eliminate the risk of white finger disease or carpal
tunnel syndrome. Long-term and regular users are, therefore, advised to closely monitor
the condition of their hands and fingers. Consult a doctor immediately if any of the
above symptoms occur.
The operating noise of the tool may damage your hearing. Wear a
sound-proofing (Oropax or ear muffs) to protect it. Long-term and
regular users are recommended to check your hearing regularly. Be
especially vigilant and careful when wearing hearing protection as it limits your
ability to hear warnings (cries, alarms, etc.).
WARNING: Some noise exposure from this device is unavoidable. Do not work in
noisy environments during approved and designated times. If necessary, observe rest
periods and limit the duration of work to the minimum required. For your personal
protection and the protection of persons in the vicinity, wear suitable hearing protection.
