Metalworking machines can be dangerous without the right training.
So, before you begin, make sure you understand the risks and safety steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, read the general safety rules for metalworking machines.
Then, review the owner manual for each tool you plan to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, get full instructions and proper training before using any machine or hand tool.
If you\u2019re unsure about anything, ask a supervisor or trained assistant right away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Processes Lab includes many different machines and tools to support your work and learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
