II. Background Information for Learners
Select Tools and Equipment
Tools are defined as implements used to modify raw materials for human use. Tools
can be considered as extension of the human hand thereby increasing its speed, power, and
accuracy.
Importance of Tools
Advantages of using the proper tools:
1. Efficiency of work
2. High quality of the work
3. Speed of accomplishment
4. Accuracy
However, these advantages depend on three factors, namely:
1. Availability and sufficiency of the materials
2. Experience and skill of the workers in their respective fields
3. Good quality of tools and equipment
Types of tools and equipment
There are three main types of tools/equipment in the shop. One type is known as hand
tools because your hand supplies the energy to operate them. The other type is called machine
or power tools/equipment which use either electricity, compressed air, or hydraulic pressure
to make them operate. The last type is referred to as measuring tools.
Hand tools
1. Screwdrivers are used to drive or turn screws. The common type has a single flat
blade for driving screws with slotted heads. The other type has the cross slotted head.
2. Hammers are the most commonly used tools in the shop. They should be gripped at
the end of the handle.
3. Pliers are specified types of adjustable wrenches. The two legs move on a pivot so
that the items of various sizes can be gripped.
4. Wrenches are used to turn screws, nuts, and bolts with hexagonal heads. “Hexagonal”
means six-sided. A variety of wrenches is used in the shop.
5. Pullers are used to remove gears and hubs from shafts, bushings from blind holes,
and cylinder liners from the engine blocks.
Power Tools/Equipment
A. Electric tools
1. Electric drill has an electric motor that drives a chuck. The chuck has jaws that can
open and close to grip a drill kit.
2. Grinding wheels can be either bench-mounted or pedestal installed. They may either
have grinding wheel, view wheel, or two grinding wheels.
3. Vacuum cleaner is used for cleaning the floor and car interiors.
B. Pneumatic Tools
1. Air chisel uses reciprocating motion to drive a cutting hammering tool. An air hammer
drives a chisel to cut off a nut that has frozen to a stud. It can be used with a variety of
tool cutters and punches to do many jobs.
2. Air impact wrenches use a pounding or impact force to loosen or tighten nuts or bolts
3. Air drill is lighter than a portable electric drill. Repeated stalling or overloading cannot
damage or overheat the drill.
4. Air racket uses the sockets and attachments from a standard socket set.
5. Pneumatic floor jack uses compressed air to flow into the jack cylinder and causes
the ram to extend and raise the vehicle.
C. Hydraulic Tools
1. Car lifts, single or double post have pads that must be placed under the designated
lift points of the car frame.
2. Hydraulic floor jack is used to raise the lifting saddle. A lever on the handle releases
the pressure so that the saddle and load will settle back down.
3. Portable crane is used for lifting the engine out of the car. It is operated hydraulically
by a hand pump.
4. Hydraulic press is used to apply force on bent parts to straighten them. It can also do
such jobs as press brushing in and out, and can press out rivets.
Measuring Tools
The different kinds of measuring tools that are used in electrical workshop otherwise
known as “Rules” are:
Zig-Zag Rule is available in 4 feet long commonly used by carpenters for rough layout.
Pull Push Tape is used to measure longer distances available from one meter to 50
meters long.
Slide Caliper Rule is a special tool used to measure outside diameter of cylindrical
objects.
Marking Gauge is a tool most appropriate in making lines parallel with the edges of
the wood.
