Eg	5m tape measure	To measure the length of the section of timber required to construct the framing for the non-consent utility building	The 5m tape allowed for all measurements to be marked for cutting.

Complete the following table for the tools you listed in the first table.

Name of tool	What recommendations are there for safe use of the tool, including PPE?	What care and maintenance is required to keep this tool in good working condition?
Eg	5m tape measure	Wind in the tape slowly, rapid rewind can cause the tape to be out of control. No PPE is specifically required.	Avoid loops in the tape as they may cause it to snap when it is pulled tight. Keep the tape dry, lightly oiled and free from grit that may scratch its surface and make reading and rewinding difficult. Avoid retracting the tape hard onto the stop end.
