Safer work starts with better knowledge.

Consider a lower-vibration tool suitable for the task.

Assess actual tool use and the manufacturer's relevant information.

Maintain cutting edges and moving parts to avoid unnecessary vibration.

Use the tool as trained without unnecessary excessive grip force.

Plan tasks to reduce prolonged uninterrupted exposure.

Report tingling, numbness or loss of finger sensation promptly.

Keep workers appropriately warm during cold-weather tool use.

Support the workpiece to help control the tool safely.

Use the correct accessory in good condition.

Do not force a tool beyond its intended application.

Consider vibration from vehicles and mobile equipment.

Reduce jolts by maintaining traffic surfaces.

Adjust suitable vehicle seating according to the equipment instructions.

Choose travel speeds suited to the surface and vehicle.

Follow occupational health arrangements for identified vibration exposure.

Keep exposure information useful for planning and review.

Do not assume ordinary gloves eliminate vibration risk.

Could a different process remove the need for vibrating tools?
