How do I use a cutting tool safely?
If you’re using any type of cutting tool for construction purposes, make sure you take the following safety precautions:
Wear personal protective equipment (such as gloves and safety glasses).
Don’t use cutting tools for any purpose other than what it has been intended for,

Lubricate any of the tool’s moving parts.
Be sure to look at the tool’s manual for more information.
