Hardware tools, as tools, bring great help to everyone’s work and life, but there are also many potential risks that are easily overlooked, such as sharp steel saws, art knives, etc. Therefore, when using them in daily life, it is important to pay attention to personal safety and ensure that the tools are used in a safe manner. Hardware tool manufacturer reminds users to remember:
- Hand tools should be carried in dedicated straps, tool bags, or tool buckets, and should not be placed in pockets of clothing, let alone on belts.
- For temporarily unused tools, they should be stored in appropriate locations and placed steadily to prevent them from falling off and injuring people. Do not place them on scaffolding, overhead pipelines, or moving parts of machinery.
- Workers should pass tools hand to hand and not throw them; When passing tools with sharp edges, the handle should be facing the person receiving the tool.
- For tools such as pry bars that require shoulder support, pay attention to the front, back, left, and right when carrying them, so that they do not collide with other objects and personnel, and be stable when placing them down.
- When carrying lightweight power tools with flexible cords, pay attention to protecting the cords from sharp objects, heat sources, oil or solvents to avoid damaging them.
