Performing Basic

Preventive Maintenance
Conduct Preventive Maintenance of
Carpentry Tools

• Preventive maintenance is a routine


maintenance process on a piece of equipment to
lessen unnecessary or sudden breakdown. A
Preventive Maintenance Plan is critical in any
maintenance management program to avoid
unplanned downtime and to increase productivity.
Three types of Maintenance
• 1. Breakdown Maintenance: It is holding up until the equipment fails before
repairing or servicing it.
• 2. Preventive Maintenance (PM):  Time-based or run-based. This includes
occasional inspection, servicing, cleaning, or replacing parts to prevent
unexpected failure.
•  Predictive. This includes regular monitoring of equipment in order to use
important/expensive parts to the limit of their serviceable life
• 3. Corrective or Predictive Maintenance: Improving equipment and its components so
that preventive maintenance can be completely reliable.
Some steps in conducting Basic
Preventive Maintenance
A. 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.
B. Electric Powered Tools and
Equipdment
• 1. Clean out the dust. To make sure that your electric tools are
ready to go. Keep them clean and free of dust. Spend some time to
clean out the dust every once in a while on your tools while they are
inactive in storage.
• 2. Check the cords. Look for tear/cut insulators on the power
cords on your electric tools. This will ensure that your electric tool can
get the power that it needs to function without an accident and avoid
electrocution.

3. Use the right tool correctly. Use tools correctly and for their
intended purposes. Follow the safety directions and operating
procedures recommended by the manufacturer. When working on a
circuit, use approved tools with insulated handles.
4. Protect your Power tools. Keep tools and cords away from
heat, oil, and sharp objects. These hazards can damage insulation. If a
tool or cord heats up, stop using it. Report the condition to your teacher
or an expert immediately.

5. Use double-insulated tools. Portable electrical tools
are classified by the number of insulation barriers between
the electrical conductors in the tool and the worker.
6. Storing Your Tools. Keep your electric tools stored in
their original cases and containers. This will keep them
free of dust and dirt while not in use

7. Lubricate moving parts. Using lubricant helps
maximize the life of tools and equipment and make
the work more efficient.
8. Follow the maintenance schedule. Following
the maintenance schedule of tools and equipment
gives the care it needs and lengthens its lifespan.
Repair of Defective
Carpentry Tools
Steps in repairing defective carpentry
tools:
A. Hand Tools
1. Inspect hand tools for damage checking.
2. Identify parts that are damaged. Based on the severity of the damage,
decide if it is for repair or replacement.
3. Check for loose parts. Loose parts should be tightened.
4. Dull or blunt edges should be sharpened or replaced.
5. Remember that if the damage is beyond repair, it should be replaced.
B. Electric Powered Tools and Equipment

1. Inspect parts such as electric cords and


connections of electric-powered tools for damage
checking.
2. Identify parts that are damaged. Based on the
severity of the damage, decide if it is for repair,
replacement, or disposal
