for long hours, it may cause a circulatory disorder
due to vibration (Raynaud's disease). In this case,
it is impossible to specify any length of operation,
because it may differ from person to person. The
following factors can have an influence on this
phenomenon: Circulatory disorders in the hands
of the operator, low outdoor temperatures, long
hours of operation. Therefore, it is recommended
to wear warm protective gloves, and to take breaks
at regular intervals.
