Powder-Actuated Tools |
|||
Powder-actuated tools operate like a loaded gun and should be treated with
the same respect and precautions. In fact, they are so dangerous that they must be
operated only by specially trained employees. Suitable eye and face protection are essential when using a powder-actuated tool. In addition, the tool should not be loaded unless it is to be used immediately. A loaded tool should not be left unattended, especially in areas where unauthorized persons could handle it. Some general procedures concerning safe use are identified below. Click on each term to learn more. |
