Basic Safety Rules for Hand Tools:

 ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION.
 Wear the RIGHT SAFETY EQUIPMENT for the job.
 Use tools that are the RIGHT SIZE & RIGHT TYPE for your job.
 Follow the correct procedure for using EVERY tool.
 Keep your cutting tools SHARP and in good condition.
 DON’T work with OILY or GREASY hands.
 Handle SHARP-EDGED and POINTED TOOLS with care.
 Always carry pointed tools by your side with the points and heavy ends DOWN.
 SECURE all small work & short work with a vise or clamp.
 NEVER carry tools in your pockets.
 DON’T use tools which are LOOSE or CRACKED.
 KEEP your punches & chisels in good condition. Mushroomed heads can chip & cause
injuries.
