Hand and Power Tools:
Hand tools are non powered or operate only through physical exertion by hand. They
include anything from axes to wrenches.
Power tool. Power tools, both mounted and portable, are tools that require a power
source to operate. There are several types of portable power tools, based on the power
source they use: electric, pneumatic, and hydraulic.
Examples of power tools are portable grinders, powered drills, portable belt sanding
machines, fastening tools, jacks etc.
Hand tools are useful for daily tasks. There are different types of tools which
can be used for any kind of task to be performed.
In order to be happy with the results of your work with hand tools, you need to be
aware of their construction, the way to properly sharpen them and the proper use of
hand tools. Lack of knowledge or negligence may lead to mistakes that can cause
injury.
When using hand tools, proper use and precision are much more important than speed
of work. Based on the type of work that has to be done, a craftsman must be adept with
his hands as well as choose the right kind of tools. He must know which the right tool for
the job is, like where to use a spanner set or wrenches. Otherwise, quality and efficiency
will suffer.
Important Tools
Hammers:
Screwdrivers
They are used to adjust levels of tightness and when selected properly, can prove
highly useful, since they not only come in various shapes but can also be altered as per
the size of the bolt.
Center Punch
It is a tool typically made of metal which was designed to help a mechanic to drill holes.
They come in various sizes. Each size corresponds to the size of a drill bit.
Files
They are used to remove material from plastics, wood or metal. In some cases, the
material is removed for creating a smooth edge. Sometimes it is used to create a new
shape or profile.
Cold chisel
These are used for shaping, removing or cutting cold metals that are softer than the
chisel-like wrought or cast iron, copper, brass or aluminium.
Clamps
Tin snips

this tool basically functions as a tough set of scissors.

Handling cautions
1. Size and application of the tool
• Make sure the diameter of the tool fits the head of the bolt / nut.
• Fit the tool to the bolt / nut securely.
Choose a Tool
Choose tools according to the type of job.
• For removing and replacing bolt / nut or removing parts. It is usual to use a socket
wrench set for automotive repairs. If a socket wrench set cannot be used due to work
space restrictions, select a boxend wrench or an openend wrench in that order.
Socket wrench set Boxend wrench (offset wrench) Openend wrench (spanner)
2. Applying strength 1
• Always turn the tool so that you are pulling it.
• If the tool cannot be pulled because of space
restrictions, push it with the palm of your hand.
3. Applying strength 2
A bolt / nut, which has been tightened firmly, can be loosened easily by the application
of impact. A hammer or pipe (used to extend the shaft) should not be used, however, to
increase torque.
Adjustable Wrench
Application
Used with bolt / nut of irregular sizes, or to hold down SST.
Instructions
Turn the adjusting screw to fit the bore to the head of the bolt / nut being used.
NOTICE:
Turn the wrench with the adjusting jaw positioned in the rotating direction. If the wrench
is not turned this way, pressure is applied
SOCKETS
bearing puller is a tool used to remove bearing sets from a rotating machine shaft or
from a blind bearing hole. ... These tools are made of tool grade steel, so they are harder than
the parts they are used on.
