With all the ruccus on Hand Arm Vibration and not without reason,
it’s good to see manufacturers are shifting to the new landscape.

Hilti, has come with a proprietary technology, to reduce the
transmitted vibration for a power tool user.
Known as AVR or Active Vibration Reduction - it can reduce
transmitted vibration by up to 50%. The method involves separating the
handles from the vibrating members and reducing vibration by
transmitting the vibratory energy through an ingenious system of
dampeners.
Now if this all seems too high tech to you - in simple terms it means
it should reduce your risk of HAV by a fair amount.
