Due to the unsafe use of electromechanical tools, many accidents often occur. How to prevent, let’s take a look at the precautions for the electromechanical tools used daily


Electrical Safety

1. The plug of the power tool must match the socket. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs for power tools that need to be grounded. Unmodified plugs and matching sockets will reduce the risk of electric shock.

2. The power tool shall not be exposed to rain or damp environment. Water entering the power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

3. Do not abuse the wires, and do not use wires to carry, pull power tools or unplug them.


Personal case protection

1. Be vigilant. When operating power tools, pay attention to the operation and stay awake and pay attention. Distracting energy during the operation of power tools can cause serious personal injury.

2. Avoid sudden start. When inserting the plug, make sure that the switch is in the off position.

3. Before turning on the power tool, remove all adjustment keys or wrenches. Leaving the wrench or key on the rotating parts of the power tool can cause personal injury.

4. Don't stretch your hands too long. Always pay attention to the balance of your feet and body. In this way, the power tool can be well controlled in unexpected situations.

5. Dress appropriately. Don't wear loose clothes or accessories. Keep your hair, clothes and sleeves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, accessories, or long hair may be caught in moving parts.

6. If the power tool is equipped with a chip removal device and a dust suction device connection device, please make sure that they are well connected and used correctly. Using these devices can reduce the risk of debris.


Use of electromechanical tools and matters needing attention

1. Don't abuse electromechanical tools. Choose the right power tool according to the purpose and scope. Choosing the right rated power electric tool will make your work more effective and safer.

2. If the switch of the electromechanical tool cannot normally switch the power supply, the electric tool cannot be used. Electric tools that cannot be controlled by switches are dangerous and must be repaired.

3. Before making any adjustments, changing accessories or storing power tools, you must unplug the power supply or disconnect the battery box from the power supply. This protective measure will reduce the risk of sudden start of the power tool.

4. Always keep the knives sharp and clean. Do not use tools with cracks, nicks on the edges, or wear and tear, otherwise it will damage the power tool and personal safety.

5. Use electromechanical tools, accessories and tools, etc. Strictly follow the operating instructions and the special types of power tools to be used, considering the operating conditions and operations. Using power tools to perform operations that do not meet the requirements may cause danger.

6. When powering on, pay attention to whether the power supply voltage is the same as the voltage indicated on the tool nameplate. When the power supply voltage is higher than the applicable voltage of the tool, it will cause serious accidents to the user and damage the tool itself. If you are not sure of the voltage of the power supply, do not plug it in casually and notify a professional electrician for confirmation.

7. Don't gossip at work. Distractions can make you lose control.

8. When operating power tools, apply appropriate force. Properly control the progress. Excessive force or excessive force will not improve work efficiency, but will damage the tool and the tool itself.

9. It is strictly forbidden to overload the power tool or perform operations other than the function of the tool itself, otherwise it will cause serious damage to the tool itself.


Power tool maintenance

If the electromechanical tool is faulty or damaged, do not disassemble it by yourself, but send professional maintenance personnel for maintenance. This will ensure the safety of the electric tool being repaired.
