Hi,

I am a pretty young guy at 36. I have a Stihl km 131 that vibrates so bad, it really hurts my hand. I have a harness, but it doesnt work for every tool.

My hands are really bothering me.

I also purchased some anti vibration gloves, but it didn't seem to help.

Any ideas? Could it be an issue with the machine?

I would say there is something wrong. If the shaft has been crimped or bent slightly you will get vibration.. The KM has a pretty decent anti vibration system so I think there is something wrong..
