present, even when the device is operated in the pre-
scribed manner. The following dangers can be present
when using the device:
 Vibration can cause injuries. Use the correct tools
for the job, use the handles provided and restrict the
working time and hazard exposure time.
 Severe injuries through contact with the cutting
tools. Keep cutting tools away from hands and feet.
Fit the blade guard when not using the device, also
during short work breaks.
 Injuries caused by hurled objects, e.g. B. wood chips

CAUTION
●
Using the device for longer periods can cause poor
circulation in the hands due to vibrations. A general
period of use cannot be set, because this depends on
several influencing factors:
 Personal tendency to suffer from poor circulation
(frequently cold fingers, tingling sensation in the fin-
gers)
 Low ambient temperature. Wear warm gloves to
protect your hands.
 Holding the device too tightly hindering blood circu-
lation.
 Continuous operation is more harmful than opera-
tion interrupted by work breaks.
You should see a doctor if using the device regularly
and for lengthy periods of time, and in the event of re-
peated occurrences of symptoms such as tingling in
the fingers or cold fingers.
