Vibration
Exposing to excessive vibration injures blood ves-
sels or nervous system of the operator and causes
the following symptoms in the fingers, hands or
wrists: "Falling asleep" (numbness), tingling, pain,
stabbing sensation, or alteration of skin color or
of the skin. If any of these symptoms occur, see a
physician.
To reduce the risk of "white finger disease", keep
your hands warm during operation and well main-
tain the machine and accessories.
Maintenance
1. Have your machine serviced by our authorized
service center using only identical replace-
ment parts. Use only identical spare parts and
