diet, smoking and work practices are all thought to 

contribute to the development of these symptoms. It 

is presently unknown what, if any, vibrations or extent 

of exposure may contribute to the condition. There are 

measures that can be taken by the operator to possibly 

reduce the effects of vibration:

• 

Keep your body warm in cold weather. When 

operating the unit wear gloves to keep the hands 

and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather 

is  a  major  factor  contributing  to  Raynaud’s 

Syndrome.

• 

After each period of operation, exercise to 

increase blood circulation.

• 

Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of 

exposure per day.

If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, 

immediately discontinue use and see your physician 

about these symptoms.

„

Check damaged parts. Before further use of the hedge 

trimmer, a guard or other part that is damaged should 

be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
