- 2. Learning Outcome • Select a best tool on a certain job. • Learn environmental Safety and Health program requirements. • Discover the different types of tools and learn there functions.
- 3. Learning Content • Proper Tool Selection. • Preparing for the task. • Safe use of Tools • Different Types of Tools and their examples.
- 4. PROPER TOOL SELECTION • A tool is a handheld device that aids in accomplishing a task. Tools range from a traditional metal cutting part of a machine to an element of a computer program that activates and controls a particular function.
- 5. Preparing for the task • How do you select the best tool for the job? First, know and understand in detail the scope of work to be accomplished, second, plan for the scope taking into account the sequence of tasks.
- 6. Preparing for the task • Selecting the best tool for each task requires training in the proper use of the tools, field experience in their safe use, and following the manufacturer’s guidance and instructions for that specific tool.
- 7. Preparing for the task • When obtaining the tool all the associated tooling and consumable parts, as recommended by the manufacturer, must be included. In addition, related consumable parts must also be selected and used according to their manufacturer’s instructions.
- 8. Safe use of Tools • Once selected, use the tool for the purpose for which it was designed. Not all tools come with detailed instructions, but there are those that do spell out the safety - Do’s and Don’ts for the your safety.

- 9. Safe use of Tools Environmental Safety and Health Program requires the following: • All tools be kept in good condition with regular maintenance • The right tool must be used for the job • Each tool be examined before use AND • damaged or defective tools NOT to be used • Tools be operated according to manufacturer’s instructions • The right protective equipment for the tool and activity be used
- 10. To complete hardware repairs, it is important to have a toolkit that should contain all of the necessary tools. As you gain experience, you will learn which tools to have available for different types of jobs. Hardware tools are grouped into these four categories. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) tools Hand tools Cleaning tools Diagnostic tools
- 11. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools • Static electricity is easily generated by friction on carpets, tile flooring, clothing, hair, fabric, and etc. The friction of moving air alone will charge suspended particles and cause the buildup of static electrical charges on people and objects in the environment. Grounded anti-static work mats used with anti-static wrist straps provide the most basic means for the controlled discharge of electro-static electricity.
- 12. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools ESD TOOLS MEANING Prevents the sudden flow of electricity to avoid damage Your computer components and parts.
- 13. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools Anti-static wrist strap used to prevent ESD damage to computer equipment.
- 14. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools Anti-static Mat used to stand on or place hardware on to prevent static electricity from building up.
- 15. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools Anti-static Jacket used to avoid contact in our body and other objects.
- 16. Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools Anti-static Slipper used prevent ESD and protection from electrical shocks.
- 17. HAND TOOLS A hand tool is a device for performing work on a material or a physical system using only hands. The hand tools can be manually used employing force, or electrically powered, using electrical current.
- 18. HAND TOOLS Flat Head Screwdriver used to loosen or tighten slotted ( - )screws.
- 19. HAND TOOLS Philips Head Screwdriver used to loosen or tighten crosshead (+) screws.
