Using and Maintaining Hand Tools (UHT)

Proper Tool Selection A tool is a handheld

device that aids in accomplishing a task. Tools
range from a traditional metal cutting part of a
machine to an element of a computer program
that activates and controls a particular
function.

INDEX.HTML
SAFE USE OF TOOLS

Once selected, use the tool for the purpose for which
it was designed. Not all tools come with detailed
instructions, but some do spell out the safety “Do’s
and Don’ts” for your safety. If there are set-up/use
options, operator judgment must always be based on
what is the safest way to use the tool

INDEX.HTML
Environmental Safety and Health Program requires the following:

1. All tools should be kept in good condition with regular maintenance.

2. The right tool should be used for the job.
3. Each tool should be examined before use and damaged or defective
tools should NOT to be used.
4. Tools should be operated according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
5. The right protective equipment for the tool and activity should be
used.

 Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools

Static electricity is easily generated by friction on carpets, tile flooring,

clothing, hair, fabric, etc… The friction of moving air alone will charge
suspended particles and cause the buildup of static electrical charges on
people and objects in the environment. Grounded antistatic work mats
used with antistatic wrist straps provide the most basic means for the
controlled discharge of electrostatic electricity. Examples of ESD Tools:

Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) Tools

Antistatic wrist strap – used to prevent

ESD damage to computer equipment.

Antistatic mat – used to stand on or place

hardware on to prevent static electricity
from building up.

INDEX.HTML
 Hand Tools

is a device for performing work on a material

or a physical system using hands only. The
hand tools can be manually used by
employing force, or electrically powered,
using an electrical current. Examples of
Hand Tools:

or leaving debris.

Compressed air – used to blow away

dust and debris from different
computer parts without touching the
components.

INDEX.HTML
Cleaning Tools
Cable ties – used to bundle
cables neatly inside and outside
of a computer.
Parts organizer – used to hold
screw, jumpers, fasteners and
other small parts and prevents
them from mixing together.

INDEX.HTML
 Diagnostic Tools
Computers are easier to use and more
dependable with each new generation of
hardware and operating system update, but
that doesn't mean they're problem-free.
Here are the most popular tools for
diagnosing your computer problems:

INDEX.HTML
Diagnostic Tools
Multimeter – used to test the integrity of
circuits and the quality of electricity in
computer components.
