in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause
pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure.
In addition, people with pacemakers should:
• Avoid operating alone.
• Do not use with Switch locked on.
• Properly maintain and inspect to avoid
electrical shock.
• Properly ground power cord.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
should also be implemented – it prevents
sustained electrical shock.

Vibration Safety
This tool vibrates during use.
Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may
cause temporary or permanent physical injury,
particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders.
To reduce the risk of vibration-related injury:
1. 1-?8-'$=;<-W$:<\/*(<-W$(88+;$/'W=+*/+?$8/$V8/$*-$

8/$C8/;'-'.$V/8,$=;'F$$Pregnant women or people
who have impaired blood circulation to the hand, past
hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes,
or Raynaud’s Disease should not use this tool.
If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such
as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),
seek medical advice as soon as possible.
2. Z8$-8($;,8Y'$.=/<-W$=;'F$$Nicotine reduces
the blood supply to the hands and fingers,
increasing the risk of vibration-related injury.
