Vibrations

Cutting hardwoods (most broadleaf trees) creates more vibration than cutting softwoods (most conifers). Cutting with cutting equipment that is blunt or faulty (wrong type or badly sharpened) will increase the vibration level.

!

WARNING! Overexposure to vibration

can lead to circulatory damage or nerve

 

damage in people who have impaired

 

circulation. Contact your doctor if you

 

experience symptoms of overexposure

 

to vibration. Such symptoms include

 

numbness, loss of feeling, tingling,

 

pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes

 

in skin colour or condition. These

 

symptoms normally appear in the

 

fingers, hands or wrists. These

 

symptoms may be increased in cold

 

temperatures.
