VIBRATION
WARNING: When using this machine
the operator can be exposed to high
levels of vibration transmitted to the hand
and arm. It is possible that the operator
could develop “Vibration white finger
disease” (Raynaud syndrome). This condition
can reduce the sensitivity of the hand to
temperature as well as producing general
numbness. Prolonged or regular users of
compacting machines should monitor the
condition of their hands and fingers closely.
If any of the symptoms become evident, seek
immediate medical advice.
