1.5.1. Prolonged use of hand held (operated) machines will cause the user to feel the
effects of/from vibrations. These vibrations can lead to white finger
(Raynaud's phenomenon) or carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition reduces
the ability of the hand to feel and regulate temperature, causing numbness
and heat sensations and may cause nerve damage and circulatory tissue
death.
Page 6
1.5.2. Not all factors that lead to white finger disease are known, but cold weather,
smoking and other diseases that affect blood vessels and blood circulation as
well as large and long-lasting impact of shocks are considered factors in the
formation of white finger. Note the following to reduce the risk the white finger
and carpal tunnel syndrome:
1.5.2.1. Wear gloves and keep your hands warm
1.5.2.2. Take regular breaks
1.5.3. All of the above precautions may help reduce the risk of white finger disease
but not rule out carpal tunnel syndrome. Long-term and regular users are
therefore recommended to observe the condition of your hands and fingers.
Seek medical attention immediately if any of the above symptoms should occur.
1.6. Noise.
1.6.1. The operating noise of the machine can damage your hearing. Wear hearing
protection such as earplugs or ear defenders to protect your hearing. Long-
term and regular users are advised to have hearing checked regularly. Be
especially vigilant and cautious when wearing hearing protection because your
ability to hear alarm warnings will be reduced.
