Safety
While we pride ourselves on the quality and dependability that we build into PETOL
GEARENCH tools and products, we caution users that it is only prudent to know and follow
the simple rules of safety when using our products, or anyone else's.
Always follow safe practices and procedures in accordance with the recommendations of
OSHA, The National Safety Council (NSC), The Hand Tools Institute (HTI), The International
Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC), Etc. All applicable Governmental rules,
regulations or restrictions, now in effect or which may be promulgated, take precedence over
the suggestions in this publication. The information in this publication is designed to
supplement standard safe practices and procedures, not in lieu of, or replacement thereof.
Safe Practices
(Source: The National Safety Council)
Failure to observe one or more of the following five safe practices accounts for most hand and
powered tool accidents:
1. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES TO PROTECT EYES
2. SELECT THE RIGHT TOOL FOR THE JOB
3. KEEP TOOLS IN GOOD CONDITION
4. USE TOOLS CORRECTLY
5. KEEP TOOLS IN A SAFE PLACE
Safety Goggles must always be worn by persons in any area where hand and powered tools are
being used.
Never apply excess leverage to a wrench or tool by means of a "Cheater Bar". Never strike
wrenches and tools with hammers or other objects.
All tools should be kept clean, inspected on a regular basis, and replaced when they show signs
of wear.
Be especially careful not to place yourself in a position that could result in bodily injury in the
event of a failure. Brace yourself firmly and pull rather than push when wrenching. (If
necessary, to push, do so with the flat of the hand rather than gripping around the wrench.)
Never stand under or near loads being hoisted off the ground.
