Safety tips when working with Sharp Blades or Edges.

The most common concern when using sharp blades or edges is an injury, such as a cut (laceration, puncture) or an amputation.

Tools or equipment with sharp blades or edges can include knives and other utensils, box cutters, utility knives, safety cutters, scissors, razor blades, etc. and in our case, it will be a utility knife.

To prevent cuts: Use the right tool for the job, Inspect the tool before use, Carry one tool at a time, tip and blade pointed down at your side, Work in a well-lit space so you can see what you are doing, Cut on a stable surface, Use a cutting board and/or slip-resistant matting to prevent the item from sliding on the counter, Hold the tool with your stronger hand, Use mesh gloves, especially for the holding hand, Cut away from your body. Make sure no body parts are in the cutting path, or in the path the blade might take if it slips.

    • Solder the joints of the wires with a soldering gun.

    • For help with soldering, check out our How to Solder and Desolder Connections guide.

    • It may help to use a vice grip or similar to hold one end of the wires in place, so that you can manipulate the other side with your hands.

    • If necessary, you can rectify any blisters or spikes in the soldering using a small hammer.

    • Once you've soldered all of the connections, check with the ohmmeter that the current flows well from one end of the extension cord to the other. If it does not, check to make sure that the solder has made a firm connection with each side of each cable pair. It may help to reflow the soldered connections.

Be sure to slide the section of thermosetting tube onto one of the cord ends before soldering the wires. The tube should be cut to a length that will cover the repair section and overlap the adjacent outer insulation by 1.5cm on each side of the repair. After soldering, slide the tube over the repair and heat shrink it.
