UNDERSTAND
After storing waste material in a designated area according to workplace procedure/OHS
procedure however handling and transporting materials and machinery and materials according to
enterprise guidelines should be practiced.

For Productive, Cost-efficient and Effective Handling of Materials and Equipment,

here are Activities You Can Immediately Implement:

 Schedule a regular clean up at least twice a year. This is also the time to undertake a
general inspection on machines and equipment. The activities include removing all cobwebs,
through scrubbing of the ceiling, walls, and floor, and cleaning of machines. Segregate
unserviceable tools, implements and equipment that are beyond repair from those that can be
repaired.
 Schedule clean-up activities twice a month, including wiping lighting fixtures and windows,
scrubbing of rest rooms, cleaning, and oiling of metal parts of farm tools, and placing
lubricants to the moving parts of machines. Repair defective tools, implements and equipment
as soon as possible.
 For regular clean-up chores, give workers about five minutes daily to
tidy the workstation, including the tools, farm implements, machine, and equipment they
use before they go home. This motivates the next workers (if they operate in shifts) to start
work immediately. Besides, this is a subtle way of developing in them the housekeeping
routine.
 Cultivate the habit of collecting waste even before it touches the floor. Provide a sack or
bag in one or two corners of the workplace where you can throw your garbage. At the end of
the day, your workers can just put their wastes in the designated places for disposal at the
scheduled day and time.

How to Clean Your Tools

Let’s start with the basics. Your shovel, spade, hoe, or even the
blades on a hedge trimmer will be a lot easier to use if you take a few
minutes to knock some of the rust off the blade. Not only will this extend
the life of the tool, but also it will cut through the soil better, and thus
require less effort to use. It is a good idea to keep a large whetstone in your shop to sharpen the blades
of your garden tools. This tool can be purchased at most hardware stores. A whetstone is an ideal tool
2|P a g e
to use to keep all the cutting edges on your garden tools honed. It will work well on your shovel, as well
as many other common garden tools. The best way to use the stone is to find a way to stabilize the tool
that you want to work on. A bench vise is ideal. You will be able to clamp the tool into place at an angle,
so you can work on it. Clamping the garden tool into place with a vise frees up both of your hands to use
the whetstone and gives you more control over what you are doing.
Apply a little bit of lubricating oil to the end of the tool and carefully begin to work the stone over
the blade. Maintain a 30-degree angle between the stone and the blade to form the ideal cutting edge
for your tool. Not only will the edge become sharper, but you will also be removing any pitting and rust
that has formed at the edge of your tool’s blade.

In stances where the moving parts of your garden tools (e.g., pruning shears, and loppers) have
frozen in place, like springs and pivot joints, you should disassemble them carefully. Clean and make
them free from rust and dirt that keep the tools from functioning properly. Break free any rust or dirt that
may keep the tool from functioning properly. Remove stubborn rust with fine steel wool or wire brush.
Using an old toothbrush with some lightweight lubricating oil is a great
way fresh oil into the joints of most garden tools.

Fresh oil will not only help your tool work as it is intended but it will
also prevent the formation of rust. Use medium-grit sandpaper to remove
rust on larger tools such as shovels, spades, and hoes.

Once your tools are clean, they’re ready to be sharpened. When sharpening, try to maintain the
original factory bevel or angle. For pruners, use a whetstone because it produces a very sharp cutting
edge. Depending on the type of whetstone, apply a few drops of oil or water to the stone. With the
beveled side of the blade against the stone, rub the sharp edge of the blade toward the stone in a
curved motion, as if you were trying to shave off a thin slice from the stone.

When working with a file, stabilize the blades in a vise or against a

solid surface such as a work bench to avoid injury and ensure an even
stroke. Always push the file across the blade in a motion away from your
body. Move the file diagonally, so that its cutting teeth are biting into the
metal on the tool. When sharpening with a file, do not use oil; metal fillings
will accumulate and clog the file’s serrations.

Farm implements like ordinary plow and wooden harrow should be checked thoroughly before
use. Loosened bolts and nuts should be tightened firmly. Disc plow and harrow should also be
lubricated on their moving parts like bearings. Tractors should be tuned-up very well by a skilled
operator. Check on their oil, lubricant, fuel, and cooling system. Tools that are defective should be
separated and be fixed immediately to avoid accident.

Simple Repair and Modification of Tools and Implements

“Simple garden tools are simple to repair”. Spend a little time checking your garden tools for
things to fix and recycle.

To Replace a Tool Handle:

1. Clamp the tool blade in a bench vise.
2. Remove the handle from the hasp using a drill, hammer, or other tools as needed.
3. Insert the new handle into the hasp.
4. Tighten the handle in the hasp using fasteners. Use a screw and screwdriver to firmly attach the
handle to the tool head.

To Fix a Leaky Hose:

a. Cut through the hose on either side of the bad section using a sharp knife.
b. Attach male and female hose couplings to the cut ends, following the directions that come with
the couplings. If the new hose fittings don’t slide in easily, try softening the ends of the hose in hot
water or lubricating them with soap or cooking oil.

To fix a Broken Tooth of Rake/Fork:

Bring this to the shop and weld the broken portion of the tools. Do the same with the other tools
3|P a g e
and implement that need welding. For farm machineries that need repair, contact expert mechanics to
the job.

Installation of Preventive Structure

It has been observed that as we go on our horticultural work, we always experience the
occurrence of inclement weather. Before it is too late, think of anything that you can do to safeguard
your crops, tools, and other facilities. We should not only focus our attention for occurrence of inclement
weather, but we must consider also other elements that may cause loss or damage to our property (ex.
astray animals, fire, and thieves).

Let’s investigate our facilities, such as nursery shed, storage house, and farm shops. Examine
their physical conditions (roofing, sidings, or floorings). Can they survive any disaster that may occur?
Are the things inside safe? If not, what preventive structures should you undertake? Below is a table
indicating the facilities physical conditions, possible calamities or disaster that may occur and the
suggested preventive structures or contingency measures to be undertaken.

Facilities Physical Conditions Calamities/Disaster Suggested Preventive/Contingency
