What I need to know

At the end of this module, you should be able to:

1.To know how to maintain tools regularly. (TLE_IAAW7/8MT-Oi-2)

What’s In

Our last lesson is all about on identifying the functional and non-functional tools and
equipment, it teaches us to know the tools according to their function and also it gives us
information about in caring and protecting our tools from damaged or loss.

Awareness of functional and non-functional hand tools is a primordial concern of

workers/welders to be effective in their jobs and to sustain the preserving hand tools this
lesson will show us on how to maintain tools and equipment and to learned more knowledge
about maintaining hand tools and equipment.

What’s New

Maintenance of hand tools and machines are both primordial concerns of a repair
technician in the welding shops and/or in the welding production. The activities should be on
schedule and with proper coordination with the production people. The term “repair” and
“maintenance” works mean differently. Repair, unusually focuses on the program of works
done in the operation of power plants in machines that are in trouble of stopping its function.
While the term “maintenance” means a scheduled or a planned visit of tools or equipment’s
for inspection and from there, reports and recommendation developed and the next tasks to
be decided such as cleaning, application of lubricants, dismantling and etc.
Some of the simple maintenance activities for hand tools, and the maintenance
schedule should be posted in a visible corner of the shop where everybody can read it.

A. Lubricating.
A task performed in the shop/production. Through the application of lubricant
substance to the identified items in parts like barrels, rollers, springs, bearing, bolts and nuts,
and other automotive parts.
A lubricant is a substance introduced to lessen friction between moving surfaces. It may
also transport external particles. The property of reducing friction is known as lubricity.

Types and Kinds of Cleaning Solvents

Solvent is a component of a solution that dissolves solute and is usually present in
large proportion or amount. It can be classified as polar and nonpolar. Polar solvents are
solvents which dissolve/are soluble in water; while nonpolar solvents are solvents which do
not dissolve/are insoluble in water.
Solvents are usually used for cleaning in workshops. They are water, gasoline,
kerosene, thinner and detergent soap.
The table below shows the kinds of cleaning solvent based on their solubility in
water.

B. Tightening/Loosening.

 In an assembly of structures, we have tools for fittings that need to be tightened and
loosened and in as much as they pose high risk to safety. Tightening bolts and nuts
and other fittings requires procedures should have carried out compliance.
C. Tool for hand Sharpening.

 Some tools need to be sharpened such as blades of knife, cold chisel, punches and
many others. To do hand sharpening for hand tools requires techniques and
application. In some multi knives cutter, manufacturers produce knife sharpening
system to hold or clamp the blade for ensuring strong blade to stone contact during
sharpening and also provided with course to fine honing stones. For cold chisel and
punches, the right file-size and grades are used for repairing the defective anvil
curve.
D. Simple Repair.

 Repair practices of hand tools are still available anytime. But, to some extent, tools
are checked yearly and many of the hand tools are eligible for condemnation and the
whole items are to be replaced by a new unit. However, there are instances that
minor repair can be performed, like replacement of wooden handle of a hammer and
mushroomed head of a cold chisel.
D.Cleaning.
 Simple process applied to hand tools. The cleaning approach may differ from one
another. For example, cleaning of the rack corners of hand tools by using air vacuum
or by a piece of clothes. Similar process may be applied to identical cleaning
situations.
