What is it?

3. Heat Gun – A heat gun is a device used to emit a stream of hot air. It can be
used to dry and strip paint, apply heat shrink tubing, apply shrink film,
dry out damp wood, bend and weld plastic, soften adhesives, heat shrink
wrap on packaging, and thaw frozen pipes, depending heavily on heat
output.
4. Chop Saw – This is also known as a cut off saw. Chop saws are often
compared to miter saws since they’re pretty similar but hold a few differences
at the same time. Chop saws have a blade that is always perpendicular to
your bench top table and sticks to strictly 90-degree cuts. Miter saws on the
other hand provide a swivel to cut in different angles as opposed to just 90
degrees. In summary, chop saws are a stationary saw that cuts what you
need in a downward motion. The uses of chop saws are usually in building or
production sites and shops. They’re great for home creation and framing
since the cutting capacity is very big, more specifically for wood or metal
planks at 90 degrees.
5. Circular Saw – They are defined as a type of saw that consists of using an
abrasive\toothed blade or disc to cut using a round (rotary) motion. There is
typically a frame surrounding the top and sides of the saw itself for
protection, leaving the bottom to do the cutting. They’re perfect for straight
cuts along the board’s length, however they can also be set to make bevel
cuts with models that have not only depth adjustments but bevel
adjustments as well. They’re available as corded or cordless. Circular saws
are used to a wide variety of materials that need to be cut, such as wood,
plastic, metal, or masonry. They can be either stationary mounted on a
machine or hand-held and portable. They’re best for straight rips and cuts,
and super-fast, efficient and accurate if you need them to be.

Lesson 2 Electrical Hydraulic Tools
Tools can be considered as extension of the human hand thereby increasing its
speed, power and accuracy. With the advancement of technology in the present
time, they are not the only option you could rely on in doing electrical works.
Nowadays, electrical and hydraulic tools are used to multiply manual work of
humans.
4. Hydraulic Bender - A hydraulic pipe bender is used for bending almost all
types of pipes except PVC conduit pipes. The bending capacity of hydraulic
pipe benders varies as per the strength, power and performance. The hydraulic
pipe benders are designed with extra power for large jobs. They are suited for
the various types of bending and forming application.

Lesson 3 Operating Procedures of Electrical and Hydraulic
Tools
Electrical and hydraulic tools are undoubtedly helpful. However, lack knowledge
of handling these tools might lead to serious hazards to people who are working
with it. Also, improper handling of these tools might lead to damaging them.
This time you will learn how to maintain electrical power and hydraulic tools and
how to store it properly. Remember that regular maintenance and servicing of
power tools and electric tools will help to ensure that they operate with optimum
efficiency at all times. This will not only help to keep tool operating costs low but
it can also increase tool safety and reliability.
With this, it is really important to be knowledgeable of their operating procedures
and precautions. Here are the most important things you must bear in mind in
operating the different electrical and hydraulic tools.
1. Angle Grinder
a. Operating Precaution:
1. Examine the power cord, extension lead, plugs, sockets and power
outlet for possible damage
2. Ensure the grinding disc for damage, don not use damage grinding
disc
3. Ensure that the grinding disc, guard and attachments (including
handle) are secure and correctly fitted.
4. Keep fingers, hands and power cords clear of the grinding disc.
8
b. Operating Procedure:
1. Attach Grinding Disc to angle grinder.
2. Make sure the Disc is fully fitted with the inner flange. (See Figure
11)
3. Lock the outer flange using wrench, make sure the Disc is properly
installed and lock tightly.
4. Mark accurately the area for cutting/grinding.
5. Hold tightly the handle of the grinder and turn the power switch ON.
9
Figure 14. Grinding Direction Figure 15. Concrete Cutting
8. After grinding, remove the disc from the cut area. Turn-off the
grinder then remove its power cord.
9. Clean the grinder before storing.
2. Hand Drill
a. Operating Precaution:
1. Examine the power cord, extension lead, plugs, sockets and power
outlet for possible damage.
2. Keep fingers, hands and power cords clear of the rotating part of the
hand drill and drill bit.
b. Operating Procedure:
1. Choose the size and location of the hole.
2. Base on the given project, measure and mark the location with
pencil.
3. Use center punch and make a small hole on the center of the marked
area.
a. take vertical and horizontal measures b. mark with “x” the intersecting point of
the vertical and horizontal measures
Figure 16. Creating Area for a Small Whole Using a Center Punch
4. Identify the correct size of drill bit to be used. Remember that the
size depends on the size of screw being used.
5. Secure the drill bit in the chuck. Leaving the hand drill unplugged,
open an empty chuck by twisting the outer barrel with your hand.
6. Place the bit in between the three grips and tighten the chuck. Use
chuck key to tighten.
10
(c)
(a)
(b)
7. Drill the hole. Place the point of the bit over the marked area with
small hole. But remember to wear proper Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE).
8. Hold the hand drill perpendicular to the surface and slowly squeeze
the trigger button or switch gently. Hold firmly so it doesn’t shift
once it starts turning.
(b)
(a)
9. Check the depth of your hole with the screw. The depth of the whole
depends on the screw that is going into it. Drill deeper if necessary.
11
10. Unplug the drill, and remove the bit from the chuck.
11. Clean hand drill before storing.
3. Heat Gun
a. Operating Precaution:
1. Examine the power cord, extension lead, plugs, sockets and power
outlet for possible damage
2. Ensure that the heat gun, guard and attachments (Including handle)
are secure and correctly fitted.
3. Keep fingers, hands and power cords clear of the tip the heat gun
(heat gun tube or nozzle).
b. Operating Procedure:
1. Prepare the material for heating
2. Check the nozzle to be used for heating base on the area for
heating
Figure 20. Using Heat Gun in Drying a Paint Heating a Plastic Tube
3. Plug the power. Hold and turn on the switch by squeezing the switch
button. Most heat gun has variable speed and heat. Squeeze to full
speed and heat if the material needs more heat and medium speed
and heat if the material needs small amount of heat.
4. Point the nozzle on the area or material to be heated. Note that
excessive heat may damage the material heated and the
distance of the heat gun nozzle and area to be heated affects
the amount of heat that hits material or area. 12
5. Turn off and let the nozzle cool down.
6. Clean heat gun before storing.
4. Hydraulic Bender
a. Operating Precaution:
1. Check hydraulic pump for any defects before using it.
2. Always observe operating precautions of the bender.
b. Operating Procedure:
1. Identify the size of pipe for bending to match the size of die to be
used.
2. Raise the handle and the upper wing plate.
3. Select the suitable
bending die for the
pipe to be bent and
slip it on the end of
cylinder ram.
4. Select the positions
of swaging blocks
for the pipe. Note:
For shorter pipes,
position the swaging
blocks closer
together to account
for the pipe
shortening during Figure 21. Parts of
the bending process. Hydraulic Bender
5. Turn the swaging blocks to the notch Source:
that IndiaMART.com
best fits the diameter of
the pipe to be bent. Lubricating the swaging blocks will promote ease
of movement.
6. Place the pipe for bending.
7. Lower the upper plate.
8. Close the release valve by turning it clockwise.
9. Pump the handle to bend the pipe.
10. When the pipe bend has been made, release the pressure by opening
the release valve turning it counter clockwise and the ram will
automatically retreat.
11. Clean hydraulic bender before storing
13
