Question 1 : Machines and WPH&S


BELT SANDER
  •   Wear Safety Glasses- to protect eyes from dust or debris - Sanders create large amounts of wood dust and small splinters. The direction of the rotating belt will throw the dust and splinters towards you. Without safety glasses these particles can end up in your eyes.
  •   Do not wear loose clothes- while using a belt sander. Any type of clothing that can potentially come in contact with a belt sander must be secured. If you are wearing loose pieces of clothing they can easily get caught in the sander.
  •   Wear an apron- when operating the belt sander to prevent dust particles and splinters from being deflected back on your clothes. 




DRILL
  • When using all drills, WEAR SAFETY GLASSES and
  • DO NOT WEAR loose clothing- Loose clothing could get wrapped up in your drill and may cause serious injury.
  • Use a clamp or vise to hold your work. It's safer and will free both hands for operating.
  • Pay close attention when drilling to prevent accidents or injury.
  • Do not touch the surface after drilling. It is hot and can cause sever burns.
