Wrenches
- One should not hammer a wrench to loosen a stubborn fastener, unless the tool has been specially designed for such treatment.
- Always pull on a wrench. One can have more control over the tool if pulling instead of pushing is done, and there is less chance of injury.
- It is dangerous practice to lengthen the wrench handle for additional leverage. Use a larger wrench.
- Choose a wrench that fit properly. A loose fitting wrench may slip and round off the corners of the bolt head and nut.
- When using wrenches, clean grease or oil from the floor in the work area. This will reduce the possibility of slipping and losing balance.
