Working with any earth auger can be
strenuous. If you have any condition that
might be aggravated by strenuous work,
check with your doctor before operating
an earth auger.
!Warning!
Prolonged use of earth augers (or other
machines) exposing the operator to
vibrations may produce whitefinger
disease (Raynaud 's phenomenon) or
carpal tunnel syndrome. These
conditions reduce the hand's ability to
feel and regulate temperature, produce
numbness and burning sensations and
may cause nerve and circulation
damage and tissue necrosis.
All the factors which contribute to
whitefinger disease are not known, but
cold weather, smoking and diseases or
physical conditions that affect blood
vessels and blood transport, as well as
high vibration levels and long periods of
exposure to vibration are mentioned as
factors in the development of whitefinger
disease. In order to reduce the risk of
whitefinger disease and carpal tunnel
syndrome, please note the following:
Wear gloves and keep your hands
warm.
Maintain a firm grip at all times, but
do not squeeze the handles with
constant, excessive pressure.
Take frequent breaks.
All the above-mentioned precautions do
not guarantee that you will not sustain
whitefinger disease or carpal tunnel
syndrome. Therefore, continual and
regular users should monitor closely the
condition of their hands and fingers. If
any of the above symptoms appear,
seek medical advice immediately.
!Warning!
The ignition system of your unit
produces an electromagnetic field of a
very low intensity. This field may inter-
fere with some pacemakers. To reduce
the risk of serious or fatal injury, persons
with a pacemaker should consult their
physician and the pacemaker manu-
facturer before operating this tool.
Proper Clothing
!Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury, the operator
should wear proper protective apparel.
Clothing must be sturdy
and snug-fitting, but allow
complete freedom of
movement. Avoid loose-
fitting jackets, flared or
cuffed pants or anything
that could be drawn into the boring tool.
Wear overalls or long pants to protect
your legs. Secure hair so it is above
shoulder level. Do not wear shorts. Use
gloves when handling the earth auger.
To reduce the risk of
falling as a result of the
forces created by the
earth auger, good footing
is most important. Wear
sturdy footwear with
nonslip soles. Steel-toed safety boots
are recommended.
