Tool Safety

Cordless Drill

• Clamp your work. Use toolbox clamps; don’t hold small parts by hand.
• Choose the right bit: rivnut vs clearance vs tap.
• Chuck it right: insert straight, tighten, tug-test.
• Drill straight (perpendicular). No side-loading—bits can shatter.
• Two hands and a stable stance; set clutch to avoid wrist twist.
• Stop fully, remove the bit, and clean up.
