Repeated prolonged operator exposure to vibrations which may be generated in the use of certain hand-held tools may produce Raynaud’s phenomenon, commonly referred to as Whitefinger disease. The phenomenon produces numbness and burning sensations in the hand and may cause circulation and nerve dam- age as well as tissue necrosis. Repetitive users of hand-held tools who experience vibrations should closely monitor duration of use and their physical condition.

The use of other than genuine ARO replacement parts may result in safety hazards, decreased tool performance and in- creased maintenance and may invalidate all warranties.

Tool maintenance and repair should be performed by autho- rized, trained, competent personnel. Consult your nearest ARO authorized servicenter.
