It is paramount to maintain your tools and equipment properly. It the tools

and equipment used in a workshop are not kept in the right manner, the problem
would arise. Every workshop in-charge should seriously maintain and stored all
tools and equipment properly. If you are in-charge, you should examine all your
tools and equipment on a regular basis to ensure that all of them are giving high
output.
In this module, you will be able learn and differentiate the classifications of
tools and equipment.

LEARNING OUTCOMES:
At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:

L.O. 3.1 Prepare inventory of tools and equipment, and

L.O. 3.2 Store tools and equipment in their proper places.

 Classifications of Tools and Equipment

A tool is a device that can be used to produce an item or accomplish a

task, but that is not consumed in the process. It can be considered as extension
of the human hand thus increasing speed, power, and accuracy and on the
other hands equipment includes any machine powered by electricity.

A. Hand tools are tools manipulated by hands without using electrical

energy such as: puller, hacksaw, pull-push rule, pliers, hammer, and others.
B. Machine/Power tools are tools manipulated by our hands and with the
use of electrical energy such as: electric drill, grinding wheels, vacuum cleaner
and others.
C. Pneumatic tools are tools or instruments activated by air pressure.
Pneumatic tools are designed around three basic devices: the air cylinder, the
vane motor, and the sprayer.

A. Hand tools
Common Hand Tools

Hammer mostly used in the shop.

These are specified types

of adjustable wrenches.
Pliers The two legs move on a
pivot so that items of
various sizes can be
gripped.

 These tools are used to
Pullers remove gears and hubs
from shafts, bushings from
blind holes, and cylinders’
liners from the engine
blocks.

These tools are used to

Screwdrivers 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.

These tools are used to

Wrenches turn screws, nuts and bolts
with hexagonal heads.
(Hexagonal means six-
sided). A variety of
wrenches are used in the
shop.

Why Maintain Inventory of Tools and Equipment

The most significant point to think at the start of your career is to

acquire branded tools. They must be made out of high-quality steel and
manufactured for precision. Special consideration is given to balance so that
the tool/equipment will be properly maintained and prevent loses. Since the
technician must work with his tools daily, regular inventory of
tools/equipment is very significant.

The initial cost of a minimum number of tools is high but there is

accompanying warranty guarantees satisfaction and many years of service. It is
better, in the long run, to start with a few cautiously selected tools that will take
care of your most common needs and then slowly build-up to a complete set. It
is sometimes hard to identify and memorize the huge number of tools and
equipment in the workshop, maintaining the inventory record is of great value.

Maintaining and Storing Tools & Equipment

An important aspect of any business is the maintenance and storage of

tools and equipment. The investment in tools and equipment is a significant part
of the overhead expenses in any operation. Proper selection and maintenance of
equipment are important factors in managing business. Selecting the proper tool
for the job and using the tool properly will increase efficiency and reduce

10
maintenance problems. Purchase tools, which are well-made and suited to the
intended use. Commercial usage may entail more heavy duty demands on
equipment.

Different ways on how to maintain and stored hand tools, power tools and
equipment.

Hand tools:
1. Clean dirt and debris from tools after each use.
2. Oil metal parts to prevent rust.
3. Lightly sand rough wooden handles and apply linseed oil.
4. Repair loose handles.
5. Sharpen blades of cutting tools.
6. Store tools in a clean dry storage area.
7. Protect surfaces of cutting tools in storage.

Power tools:
1. Read and follow the maintenance schedule in the owner’s manual
for each piece of power equipment.
2. Change the oil.
3. Clean the air filter.
4. Lubricate moving parts.
5. Sharpen dull blades or replace worn blades according to the owner’s manual.
6. Replace spark plugs.
7. Drain oil and gasoline before long-term storage.
8. Check electric cords and connections on electric-powered tools.
9. Store tools in a clean dry storage area.

Equipment:
1. Store equipment in a clean dry storage area.
2. Rinse and clean spray equipment after each use.
3. Clean spreaders and check wheel-driven gears.

4. Clean carts and wheelbarrows after use.

11
 Sample Proper Arrangement and storage of tools and equipment

You can see in the pictures that all tools and equipment are arranged and
stored properly in their own racks. Like for example the screw drivers are
arranged by type and sizes, hammers, saws, c-clamps, etc. are in their racks.

 INVENTORY OF TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT

Directions: Given the record book/memorandum, receipts, inventory form,

ballpen, and correction fluid, conduct inventory of tools and
equipment, identify, record and report damaged tools and equipment
and give repair recommendations if repairable.

Procedures:
1. Secure inventory forms/memorandum receipt of tools and equipment.
2. Study the parts of the Inventory Form.
3. Check the list of tools and equipment in the memorandum receipt tallies with
the existing tools and equipment found in the workshop including their
specifications and condition.
4. List down any losses and damages you find while conducting the Inventory.
5. Fill out the remarks column of the inventory forms for any losses/damages.
6. Recommend for replacement of lost tools and equipment.
7. Recommend for repair of damaged tools and equipment if repairable.
