2.2.2. VIBRATIONS
Prolonged use of this machine exposes user to
vibrations. It can lead to the “white fingers” disease
(Raynaud’s Phenomenon). This disease reduces
the hand’s sense of touch and the ability to adjust
the temperature, creating a lack of sensibility in the
fingers and a burning sensation. This disease can
cause nerve and circulation problems, and even
necrosis in the hands.
A high level of vibration and long periods of exposure
are factors that contribute to the “white fingers”
disease. In order to reduce the risk of the “white
fingers” disease, it is necessary to take these
recommendations into account:
• Always wear gloves.
• Make sure to always have warm hands.
• Make sure that the chain is always sharpened.
• Take frequent breaks.
• Always firmly hold the machine by the handles.
If you detect any “white fingers” disease symptoms
immediately consult your doctor.
2.3. SAFETY IN THE WORK AREA
Do not operate this machine in explosive
atmospheres as well as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases and dust.
Never start the machine in enclosed areas
such as rooms or garages. This machine
emits dangerous gases through the exhaust
pipe that will accumulate in the area causing the
air to be toxic and harmful to the health of people,
animals and plants that are inside the area. Do not
start the machine in a room or enclosure. The exhaust
fumes and fuel fumes contain carbon monoxide and
harmful chemicals. In case of a concentration of gases
produced by poor ventilation, remove all that impedes
the flow of clean air from the work area to improve
ventilation and do not return to work in the area
unless you have correctly ventilated the area and are
certain that ventilation is sufficient as to not happen
again this concentration.
The area within a radius of 15 meters
around the machine should be considered
risk area in which no one must enter while
the machine is running (security area). When necessary,
use ropes and warning signs to mark the security area.
Maintain children and curious persons away
from the work area while operating this
machine. Distractions can cause a loss of
control. Make sure that children, people or animals do
not come into your work area.
When the work must be performed simultaneously
by two or more persons, always check the presence
and location of others in order to maintain a sufficient
distance between each person to ensure safety.
Do not use this machine at night, with fog or low
visibility which will not allow you to see the working
area clearly.
Keep the work area clean and work with good lighting.
Only use this machine with daylight or with good
artificial lighting. Cluttered and dark areas cause
accidents. Inspect and remove any objects that can
cause damage to you or the machine.
Do not use this machine in areas where there is wiring
or underground pipes.
