TIPS FOR USING PLIERS WIRE CUTTERS

• Always wear safety glasses or goggles, or a face
  shield (with safety glasses or goggles) whenever
  there's a possible hazard from flying particles,
  pieces of wire, etc.
• Cut at right angles. Never rock the cutter from
  side to side or bend the wire back and forth
  against the cutting edges.
• Choose pliers or wire cutters with an edge span
  of 6 cm - 9 cm (2 1/2 - 3 1/2 in.) to stop your
  palm or fingers from being pinched when the tools
  are closed.
