List 4 electrical safety points when using a mains powered drill

1 Don’t use near water. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

2 Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.

3  Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

4 When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

5 Do not use portable cord-and-plug connected power tools if the guards are removed.

List 4 personal safety points when using a mains powered drill

1 Use personal protective equipment. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

2 Using the right tools.  Always use the right tools for the job. Never use a tool for a different purpose than it was intended. You risk damaging the tools and injuring yourself.

3 Dress properly. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

4 Be aware of your surroundings. Always be aware of the people around you when using tools.

1 keep the cutting tool sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

2 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

3 Do not use the power tools if the tools switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

4 Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

5 Maintain power tools. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

6 Do not force the power tool. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
