Hazards caused by
repetitive movements
■
When using a mini die grinder
to perform work-related activi-
ties, operators may experience
uncomfortable sensations in
their hands and arms, as well
as in the neck and shoulders
or other parts of the body .
■
When using a mini die grinder,
the operator should adopt a
comfortable posture whilst
ensuring a secure hold and
avoiding awkward postures
or positions in which it is
difficult to maintain balance .
The operator should change
positions during long-lasting
tasks . This can be helpful in the
prevention of discomfort and
fatigue .
■
If the operator notices symp-
toms such as persistent or
recurring illness, discomfort,
throbbing, pain, tingling,
burning or stiffness, these indi-
cations should not be ignored .
In this case, the operator
should consult a suitably quali-
fied physician .
