your health: blood circulatory disturbances (especially of your hands), joint damages are
possible. Therefore:

The hardness of the underground, genetical predisposition for blood circulatory dis-
turbances and low temperature reduce the length of the operation times not being
hazardous to your health!
Excessively long operation sessions, and the regular operation may cause damages of the
joint and muscular system of your body. Adjust operation times in accordance with your state
of physical well-being.
