Explosion-proof wrenches, explosion-proof screwdrivers, and vices are often used together, causing "slip" problems. In order to prevent this problem from happening, the screwdriver bit should be selected correctly and the vise should have the appropriate tightness. Cutting tools are the most dangerous hand tools before a wrench is applied, so use them with extreme caution. Strictly follow the rules for safe use of cutting tools. Before cutting, the blade should be placed on the cutting tool to keep it in good condition: install the blade correctly and make sure it is sharp, if the blade becomes dull, the blade may slip; use a "retractable" blade to keep it secure and always Keep blade exposure to a minimum; When the tool leaves the body before cutting; Cutting tools should be transported properly. If you must carry a cutting tool with you, wear a tight-fitting belt sheath to prevent cuts. After cutting, the blade should be removed or removed from its storage place.

The material is also dangerous
The materials used are often as sharp as the blades of cutting tools. For example, "trimmed" wires have sharp edges that can see through thick materials and human skin. Metal parts cut with a vise also have sharp edges that can easily scratch skin. When using hand tools, other materials used can also be dangerous. For example, when a "roll" of plastic or metal is cut, the plastic or metal may suddenly break and possibly puncture the skin. These hazards make personal protective equipment particularly important. If possible, wear wire gloves. Eye protection is required when using hand and power tools, especially against small "waste" that may appear, such as wire or sawdust.

Use a hammer safely
Generally speaking, the head is a commonly used percussion tool. If you are not careful when using it, you can easily damage your fingers. There are several points to note when using these tools; first, pay attention to the job; second, choose the appropriate hammer. A claw hammer is used to strike "soft iron nails." First, you need to click and then withdraw your hands from the hitting area to re-hit the ball. A claw hammer is not suitable for striking metal. Ring hammers can be used in conjunction with chisels to drive cement nails and flatten soft metals; the third is to be equipped with protective equipment. In order to reduce damage to the user's eyes and hands during operation, it is necessary to wear goggles, masks, and protective gloves.
