HAND TOOL SAFETY

Hammers, wrenches, chisels, pliers exacto knife , screwdrivers, and other hand tools are often underrated as sources of potential danger. Hand tools may look harmless, but they are the cause of many injuries. In fact, an estimated 8 percent of all workplace compensable injuries are caused by incidents associated with hand tools. These injuries can be serious, including loss of fingers or eyesight.

Hand tools can cause many types of injuries:

1. Cuts, abrasions, amputations, and punctures. If hand tools are designed to cut or move metal and wood, remember what a single slip can do to fragile human flesh.
2. Repetitive motion injuries. Using the same tool in the same way all day long, day after day, can stress human muscles and ligaments. Carpal tunnel syndrome (inflammation of the nerve sheath in the wrist) and injuries to muscles, joints and ligaments are increasingly common if the wrong tool is used, or the right tool is used improperly. Injury from continuous vibration can also cause numbness or poor circulation in hands and arms.
3. Eye injuries. Flying chips of wood or metal are a common hazard, often causing needless and permanent blindness.
4. Broken bones and bruises. Tools can slip, fall from heights, or even be thrown by careless employees, causing severe injuries. A hammer that falls from a ladder is a lethal weapon.

To avoid such injuries, remember the following safety procedures:

1. Use the right tool for the job. Don't use your wrench as a hammer. Don't use a screwdriver as a chisel, etc. Go back to the tool house and get the right tool in the right size for the job.
2. Don't use broken or damaged tools, dull cutting tools, or screwdrivers with worn tips.
3. Cut in a direction away from your body.
4. Make sure your grip and footing are secure when using large tools.
5. Carry tools securely in a tool belt or box. Don't carry tools up ladders. Use a hoist or rope.
6. Keep close track of tools when working at heights. A falling tool can kill a co-worker.
7. Pass a tool to another person by the handle; never toss it to them.
8. Use the right personal protective equipment (PPE) for the job. Follow company instructions for selecting and using safety eyewear, steel toed shoes, gloves, hard hats, etc.
9. Never carry sharp or pointed tools such as a screwdriver in your pocket.
10. Select ergonomic tools for your work task when movements are repetitive and forceful.
11. Be on the lookout for signs of repetitive stress. Early detection might prevent a serious injury.
12. Always keep your tools in top condition. A dull blade or blunt point can lead to injury.
13. Store tools properly when you stop work.

By following these precautions, you can help prevent injuries and provide a better workplace for everyone. Remember, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!

Suggestions for Equipment-Specific Tests

            Equipment-specific safety tests must match exactly, down to the manufacturer, what you have in your shop.  Review the manufacturer’s details and requirements on safety.  Contact local assessment personnel for directions on producing a solid examination tool.  Look to the state office of education for additional resources if you still need help producing adequate tests.  Below are unspecified guidelines for typical manufacturing chemicals and equipment:

Handling Chemicals

1. Do not wash hands in cleaning solvents. Absorption of these liquids through the skin can cause serious illness.
2. Do not handle chemicals of any type unless you are aware of the potential skin and inhalation hazards. Consult the appropriate MSDS.
3. Wear appropriate skin, face, eye, and hand protection when moving or handling bulk chemicals.
4. Always wear chemical resistant gloves, aprons, and complete eye protection when handling corrosive chemicals. If chemicals contact skin, wash with large amounts of water immediately.
5. Do not open chemical containers which have been stored in the sun unless proper care is taken. Many chemicals will build up pressure in the container when exposed to heat.
6. Clean up small chemical spills immediately if you can do it safely; otherwise, notify supervisor.

Grinding Machines

7. Grinding wheels and wire brushes shall not be operated in excess of the speed recommended by the manufacturer. Check the recommended rpm against that of the shaft or motor before mounting a new wheel. Check all grinding wheels for chips and cracks before use.
8. Face shields, safety glasses, or chipper’s goggles shall be worn at all times when grinding or using a wire brush.
9. Gloves shall not be worn while grinding, nor will cloth be used to hold work pieces.
10. Do not operate grinding machines unless metal wheel hoods are in place. Do not apply work too quickly to a cold wheel.
11. Tool rests shall be secured at all times and adjusted to within 1/8 inch of the wheel. Top wheel guards shall be adjusted to within 1/8 inch of the top of the wheel.
12. Disc grinder tables shall be adjusted to within 1/8 inch of the disc.
13. When a grinder is first turned on, do not stand in line with the grinding wheel. If any wobble or vibration is noticed, the machine must be turned off and repaired.
14. Except where specifically designed, one should not grind on the sides of the grinding wheel.
15. Do not grind wood, aluminum, copper, or other soft materials on wheels designed for steel and iron.

Metal Lathes

1. Chip guards should be used in operations that could endanger the operator or others nearby.
2. Chip breakers shall be used whenever practical. Tool ways must be kept clear and clean.
3. Tools should not be set or adjusted while the lathe is in operation. Tools and chucks must be checked for defects before use.
4. Brushes or chip pullers shall be used for removing chips. Operators shall not use their hands, or compressed air in excess of 30 psi, to remove chips.
5. Heavy chucks, face plates, or other heavy equipment should never be handled without proper lifting equipment.
6. Tools or other equipment shall not be stored on top of the head stock.
7. Rotating stock extending into aisles should be marked with a warning device (yellow tape, rag, or tag) or contained by physical barrier.
8. Magnesium or similar metals shall not be machined unless appropriate fire protection is provided.
9. Do not stop lathe with tool bit in the cut, or with feed clutch engaged. Hand pressure should not be used to stop free spinning chucks. 

Metal Cutting Band Saws

1. Before starting an operation, be sure the machine is set for the recommended speed, feed, and blade type for the material to be cut.
2. A complete face shield shall be worn when blades are electrically welded on the machine.
3. The portion of the blade between the upper wheel and the saw table should be completely enclosed except for the point at which the cut is made.
4. Inspect and adjust the table and blade guide to be sure that small parts cannot jam between the table and moving blade.
5. The length of the exposed blade should not be more than 3/8 inch greater than the thickness of the stock being cut.
6. Use pliers, tongs, jigs, or other hold-down devices when sawing small parts that could jam between the blade and saw guide.
7. Warn personnel or install barriers during sawing or welding operations that throw hot sparks onto nearby work stations.

Metal Planers, Shapers, drilling and Boring Machines

1. Always use brushes or chip pullers to clean the work area. Operators shall not use their hands or compressed air in excess of 30 psi to remove chips.
2. Always clamp the work securely before starting the cut. Do not measure the job while the machine is in operation.
3. Always remove the stroke-change screw handle before starting the shaper.
4. Do not place heavy parts or tools on the machine without the use of approved lifting equipment.
5. Only soft metal or plastic hammers should be used when setting up jobs on a drill press or boring mill.
6. Adjustable wrenches should not be used on the machine parts or equipment. Properly sized box or open-end wrenches should be used.
7. Do not operate drill presses with dull tools.
8. Never make adjustments on the chuck when the machine is in motion.
9. Boring mill operators should never attempt to make measurements near the tool, reach across the table, or adjust the work while the spindle is turning.
10. When deep holes are being drilled beyond the flutes of the drill, the drill should be withdrawn frequently to keep it free of chips.
11. Stop the machine before attempting to clear work that has been jammed
