HAND ARM VIBRATION
Certain types of equipment can emit vibration to the operator and cause serious conditions such as ‘vibration white finger’. We have separated vibration ratings into 3 clear risk categories.
Equipment that has a vibration risk will be clearly marked according to the level of risk.
The rating gives a basic guideline however please contact us should you require any further and more definitive information.
Smiths consider safety a high priority. Every item hired is supplied with safety and operating instructions and our helpful staff will advise on the use and also the safety equipment required.
