Use only accessories recommended by ARO.
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.
ARO is not responsible for customer modification of tools for
applications on which ARO was not consulted.
Tool maintenance and repair should be performed by autho-
rized, trained, competent personnel. Consult your nearest
ARO authorized servicenter.
It is the responsibility of the employer to place the information
in this manual into the hands of the operator.
