ebuild: Safety equipment

I am now adamant in wearing safety goggles after a friend of mine suffered an injury due to negligence when working with a power tool. I wondered why do people not want to wear safety equipment? Is it general laziness, the fear of looking unfashionable or impracticality?

My Pro 200 has been blinking and beeping for about a day. Unfortunately, I can't put my hands on my manual. In the past, there were some "resets" that I could try. At the moment, it seems to work fine - I get a steady green light. Any thoughts or ideas?

There are well established guidelines for the safety operation of coal grinding equipment. These fall into two broad categories: (i) explosion prevention, and (ii) explosion protection. For prevention the best solution is to ensure that there is less than 12 per cent oxygen in the atmosphere.

With an auto, you should not be burned, even if it doesn't darken. It's not the visible obscurity that stops the UV. It's a shade 14 to UV in all states. Do you wear safety glasses behind your hood?

Some of it does more harm than good in my opinion. Safety goggles make sense if you're welding, but otherwise they're not very good for peripheral vision, particularly on a busy site. Same with ear defenders - could stop you from hearing a vehicle reversing for example.
