 DISCUSSION PROPER
Clean out the Dust.
To make sure that your electric tools are ready to go
when you are,
keep them clean and free of dust. Spend some time to
clean out the dust every
once in a while on your tools while they are inactive in
storage.
Check the Cords.
Look for tear/cut insulator on the power
cords on your electric tools.
This will ensure that your electric tool can
get the power that it needs to function
without an accident.
Use the right tool
correctly.
Use tools correctly and for their intended
purposes. Follow
the safety directions and operating procedures
recommended by the manufacturer.
When working on a circuit, use approved tools
with insulated handles.
Protect your Tools
Keep tools and cords away from heat, oil,
and sharp objects. These hazards can
damage insulation
Use double-insulated
tools
Portable electrical tools are
classified by the number of
insulation barriers between the
electrical conductors in the tool and
the worker.
Storing Your Tools-
Keep your electric tools stored in their
original cases and
containers. This will keep them free of
dust and dirt while they are not being
used
