When handling PC components it is important that you are properly grounded as a static discharge could potentially damage them. That is why the anti-static wristband is included in the tool list as an optional item. To use the wristband, attach the clip to a metal object such as a computer case and attach the wrist strap to your wrist. If you do not wish to use the anti-static wristband you can also make sure you are grounded by periodically touching a metal object like your computer case.
