THE OPERATOR
Physical Condition
You must be in good physical condition
and mental health and not under the
influence of any substance (drugs,
alcohol, etc.) which might impair vision,
dexterity or judgment. Do not operate
this machine when you are fatigued.
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 factors which contribute to white-
finger 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:
Most STIHL power tools are available
with an anti-vibration ("AV") system
designed to reduce the transmission of
vibrations created by the machine to the
operator's hands. An AV system is
recommended for those persons using
power tools on a regular or sustained
basis.
Keep your hands warm.
Keep the antivibrationsystem well
maintained. A power tool with loose
components or with damaged or worn
antivibration element will tend to have
higher vibration levels.
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 closely monitor the
condition of their hands and fingers. If
any of the above symptoms appear,
seek medical advice immediately.
Proper Clothing
Warning!
Be alert – if you get tired, take a break.
Tiredness may result in loss of control.
Working with any power tool can be
strenuous. If you have any condition
that might be aggravated by strenuous
work, check with your doctor before
operating this machine.
Warning!
Prolonged use of a power tool (or other
machines) exposing the operator to
vibrations may produce whitefinger dis-
ease (Rayn aud's phenomenon) or
carpal tunnel syndrome.
Warning!
The ignition system of the STIHL 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, per-
sons with a pacemaker should consult
their physician and the pacemaker
manufacturer before operating this tool.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury, the operator
should wear proper protective apparel.
To reduce the risk of
injury to your eyes never
operate your power tool
unless wearing goggles
or properly fitted protec-
tive glasses with
adequate top and side
protection complying with
ANSI Z 87.1 (or your
applicable national
standard).
Warning!
Power tool noise may
damage your hearing.
Wear sound barriers (ear
plugs or ear mufflers) to
protect your hearing.
Continual and regular
users should have their hearing
checked regularly.
