Safety:Upholstery
needles, tacks, staples, scissors, etc. are sharp. Staples guns are powerful
enough to penetrate hard woods. The needle on an industrial sewing machine
is as large as a finishing nail. Use eye protection where appropriate and
needle guards if recommeded with your sewing machine. Secure your work.
You're more likely to injure yourself on a small job like putting a button
in a pillow than in a chair. A dining room chair seat can slip easilly
while you're stapling it if you're not careful. Use both hands when using
staple knockers to strip furniture and so on. Use your common sense. We're
not responsible for any injuries received while following these instructions.
