Power Tool Safety

I wanted to create some basic information for safety since I see so many people getting hurt with their tools.  If you just follow these basic instructions and simple task, you can save yourself a lot of time, money and pain.

  • Read Instruction
  • Make sure the tool is unplugged any time you change the blade or bit
  • Use a push stick and save your fingers for table saws
  • Always use the blade guard
  • Wear eye protection
  • Wear ear protection
  • Always make sure you are using the correct blade or bit for the job
  • Always make sure the blade or bit is sharp
  • Make sure you always have a first aid kit that is up to date
  • Make sure you have a fire extinguisher near by that is full.  Try to buy one that is for A-B-C type of fires.
