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.

• Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping system that is designed to minimize vibration and make operation easier.
