Why should you care about power tool maintenance and safety?<\/h3>\r\n\t

Power tools (any tool actuated by a power source other than manual work) have become incredibly important to jobs, projects and companies across many industries including construction, manufacturing, landscaping\/gardening and more – and have enabled work to get done faster and safer. But all of these power tools also introduce their own set of challenges for tool users and the companies relying on these tools for work.<\/p>\r\n

The obvious issue introduced through the use of power tools is danger – with an estimated 400,000 people suffering injuries and over 200 dying due to power tools. There’s also the other inherent issues involved with purchasing and maintaining tools, which can be both costly and logistically difficult.<\/p>\r\n\t

What should you have in your Power Tool Inspection Checklist?<\/h3>\r\n\t

There’s no universal template that is mandated across industries and region, but companies should know to follow the standard safety practices to keep everything up to industry standard. Here are the contents that stay consistent across most power tool inspection checklists:<\/p>\r\n

    \r\n
  1. Information about the tool: its name, model, manufacturer, serial number, etc. to keep all of your records structured and arranged for inventory management.<\/li>\r\n
  2. Section for visual inspection (like any physical damages, wear and tear, missing components, etc.)<\/li>\r\n
  3. Section for functional check like if it runs smoothly, or if there are unusual noises. It could be tool-specific like for saws, there could be additional items to check for the blade movement.<\/li>\r\n
  4. Section for checking the safety features, cleanliness, and maintenance<\/li>\r\n
  5. Final status – whether pass or fail.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

    The contents of your inspection checklist may differ depending on the nature of your tool e.g hand tool vs. electrical power tool, but the core ingredients will be similar.<\/p>\r\n\t

    How to use your Power Tool Inspection Checklist the right way?<\/h3>\r\n\t

    Even with a checklist that helps make sure your power tools are safe to use, how to use it also matters. Here are some quick tips you need to do it properly:<\/p>\r\n
