Hi, this is Jon on behalf of ExpertVillage. In this video clip, I'll be talking about tool use and care. You always want and make sure and use a clamp or a vise or some other type of appropriate method to secure your work piece. You never want to force the tool. The tool should work with ease. If you squeeze the trigger, and the tool does not turn on or off or the tool does not work properly, do not use the tool. Lastly, when you're going to make any type of adjustments to the tool, make sure you unplug it so it doesn't accidently turn on when you're making the adjustments.
