REVIEW 7 QUESTIONS Q1.  When handling a weapon, you need to think about what you’re doing for what reason? Q2.  Projectiles that have a 3-inch or greater diameter are color-coded. What information is shown by the color code? ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT All  electrical  and  electronic  equipment  is hazardous;  therefore,  strictly  observe  all  safety precautions.

Cases of fatal shock have been recorded from the use of equipment such  as  portable  grinders  and  drills,  fans,  movie projectors, and coffee makers. In most cases, death would  have  been  avoided  if  proper  grounding instructions had been observed.
