3. Try Square
This is used to mark lines at 90 degrees to a straight edge.
It is used to mark out lines square to the face edge and face side.
It may also be used to check if edges are straight. If the try square is placed on the edge of the material and held up to a light, any light shining through between the material and the try square blade indicates that the edge of the material is not straight.

4. Steel Rule
A steel rule is a very accurate marking and measuring tool. The steel is thin and the markings on the rule are very fine.
The measurements are in millimeters on one edge and inches on the other.
The steel rule can also be used as a straight edge to check if materials or edges of materials are straight.
The measurements on the steel rule go all the way to the end unlike the plastic ruler. This is because the rule may be used to measure inside pipes. It may also be used to measure diameters and circumferences of pipes and tubes accurately. The end of the rule with the measurements to the edge is called the zero end.

5. Marking Gauge The marking gauge is used on wood.
It is used to mark straight lines parallel to a straight edge.
The marking tool has an adjustable stock (the stock slides up and down the stem) and is set using a steel rule.
When in use the stock must be pressed tightly against the face edge of the material. It is pushed away from the body with the spur (back end of the pin) inclined at an angle. The point should leave a narrow groove along the face surface.

Panel saws are used to cut timber sheet materials leaving a fine cut. There are two other saws that look similar, Cross-cut & Rip saw.
Click arrow to go forward

11. Coping Saw
Coping saws are used to remove complicated shapes and cut curves in woods and plastics.
The blade is held in a frame and may be easily replaced if broken.
The teeth of the blade point backwards towards the handle.
The saw cuts on the pull stroke and not on the forward stroke. This is because the blade is too flexible to be pushed.
The blade can be angled in the frame if the frame gets in the way when cutting larger sheet materials.

12. Tenon Saw
Tenon saws are used to cut straight cuts in wood and some plastics.
This type of saw has a stiff back and is suitable for detailed cuts.
The saws without this type of stiff back are more flexible and are designed to cut large panels.
The tenon saw is generally used to cut woodwork joints.

13. Name that tool A bench hook.
The tenon saw is used in conjunction with the bench hook. The bench hook is used to support the piece of wood whilst it is being cut. It hooks onto the edge of a desk and is held by the vice.

14. Panel Saw
Large panels or sheets of materials for example plywood or M.D.F require larger ripsaws in order to cut them by hand.
Sheets that are small enough may be held in the vice whereas larger sheets may need to be supported on special types of portable carpenter's supports called trestles.

28. WRENCHES Wrenches are the most used hand tool by service technicians.
Most wrenches are constructed of forged alloy steel, usually chrome-vanadium steel.
FIGURE 4-1 A forged wrench after it has been forged but before the flashing; extra material around the wrench has been removed.

29. WRENCHES Open-End Wrench
An open-end wrench is usually used to loosen or tighten bolts or nuts that do not require a lot of torque.
An open-end wrench has two different sizes; one at each end.
FIGURE 4-2 A typical open-end wrench.The size is different on each end.Notice that the head is angled 15 degrees at each end.

30. WRENCHES Box-End Wrench
A box-end wrench is placed over the top of the fastener and grips the points of the fastener.
A box-end wrench is angled 15 degrees to allow it to clear nearby objects.
FIGURE 4-3 A typical box-end wrench is able to grip the bolt or nut at points completely around the fastener. Each end is a different size.

31. WRENCHES Box-End Wrench
A box-end wrench has two different sizes; one at each end.
FIGURE 4-4 The end of a box-end wrench is angled 15 degrees to allow clearance for nearby objects or other fasteners.

32. WRENCHES Box-End Wrench
Most service technicians purchase combination wrenches, which have the open end at one end and the same size box end on the other end.
FIGURE 4-5 A combination wrench has an open end at one end and a box end at the other end.

33. WRENCHES Adjustable Wrench
An adjustable wrench is often used where the exact size wrench is not available or when a large nut, such as a wheel spindle nut, needs to be rotated but not tightened.
FIGURE 4-6 An adjustable wrench. Adjustable wrenches are sized by the overall length of the wrench and not by how far the jaws open. Common sizes of adjustable wrenches include 8, 10, and 12 inch.

34. WRENCHES Line Wrenches
Line wrenches are also called flare-nut wrenches, fitting wrenches, or tube-nut wrenches and are designed to grip almost all the way around a nut used to retain a fuel or refrigerant line, and yet, be able to be installed over the line.
FIGURE 4-7 The end of a typical line wrench, which shows that it is capable of grasping most of the head of the fitting.

35. RATCHETS, SOCKETS, AND EXTENSIONS
A socket fits over the fastener and grips the points and/or flats of the bolt or nut.
The socket is rotated (driven) using either a long bar called a breaker bar (flex handle) or a ratchet.

36. RATCHETS, SOCKETS, AND EXTENSIONS
FIGURE 4-9 A typical flex handle used to rotate a socket, also called a breaker bar because it usually has a longer handle than a ratchet and, therefore, can be used to apply more torque to a fastener than a ratchet.
FIGURE 4-8 A typical ratchet used to rotate a socket. A ratchet makes a ratcheting noise when it is being rotated in the opposite direction from loosening or tightening. A knob or lever on the ratchet allows the user to switch directions.

37. RATCHETS, SOCKETS, AND EXTENSIONS
Sockets are available in various drive sizes, including 1/4-inch, 3/8-inch, and 1/2-inch sizes for most automotive use.
FIGURE 4-10 The most commonly used socket drive sizes include 1/4-inch, 3/8-inch, and 1/2-inch drive.

38. RATCHETS, SOCKETS, AND EXTENSIONS
FIGURE 4-11 A 6-point socket fits the head of the bolt or nut on all sides. A 12-point socket can round off the head of a bolt or nut if a lot of force is applied.

39. RATCHETS, SOCKETS, AND EXTENSIONS Crowfoot Sockets
A crowfoot socket is a socket that is an open-end or line wrench to allow access to fasteners that cannot be reached using a conventional wrench.
FIGURE 4-12 A crowfoot socket is designed to reach fasteners using a ratchet or breaker bar with an extension.

40. RATCHETS, SOCKETS, AND EXTENSIONS Torque Wrenches
Torque wrenches are socket turning handles that are designed to apply a known amount of force to the fastener.
There are two basic types of torque wrenches including:
Clicker Type
Beam Type

41. RATCHETS, SOCKETS, AND EXTENSIONS Torque Wrenches
FIGURE 4-14 A beam-type torque wrench that displays the torque reading on the face of the dial. The beam display is read as the beam defects, which is in proportion to the amount of torque applied to the fastener.
FIGURE 4-13 Using a torque wrench to tighten connecting rod nuts on an engine.

42. CHECK TORQUE WRENCH CALIBRATION REGULARLY
Most experts recommend that torque wrenches be checked and adjusted as needed at least every year and more often if possible.
FIGURE 4-15 Torque wrench calibration checker.

43. RATCHETS, SOCKETS, AND EXTENSIONS Safe Use of Sockets and Ratchets
Always use the proper size socket that correctly fits the bolt or nut.
All sockets and ratchets should be cleaned after use before being placed back into the toolbox.
FIGURE 4-16 Deep sockets allow access to the nut that has a stud plus other locations needing great depth, such as spark plugs.

44. SCREWDRIVERS
Many smaller fasteners are removed and installed by using a screwdriver.
The most commonly used screwdriver is called a flat tip or straight blade.
FIGURE 4-17 A flat-tip (straight blade) screwdriver. The width of the blade should match the width of the slot in the fastener being loosened or tightened.

45. SCREWDRIVERS
Both straight blade and Phillips screwdrivers are available with a short blade and handle for access to fasteners with limited room.
FIGURE 4-18 Two stubby screwdrivers that are used to access screws that have limited space above. A straight blade is on top and a #2 Phillips screwdriver is on the bottom.

46. SCREWDRIVERS Offset Screwdrivers
An offset screwdriver is bent at the ends and is used similar to a wrench.
FIGURE 4-19 An offset screwdriver is used to install or remove fasteners that do not have enough space above to use a conventional screwdriver.

47. SCREWDRIVERS Impact Screwdriver
An impact screwdriver is used to break loose or tighten a screw.
A hammer is used to strike the end after the screwdriver holder is placed in the head of the screw and rotated in the desired direction.
FIGURE 4-20 An impact screwdriver used to remove slotted or Phillips head fasteners that cannot be broken loose using a standard screwdriver.

48. HAMMERS AND MALLETS
Hammers and mallets are used to force objects together or apart.
The shape of the back part of the hammer head (called the peen) usually determines the name.
FIGURE 4-21 A typical ball-peen hammer.

49. HAMMERS AND MALLETS Mallets
Mallets are a type of hammer with a large striking surface, which allows the technician to exert force over a larger area than a hammer, so as not to harm the part or component.
FIGURE 4-22 A rubber mallet used to deliver a force to an object without harming the surface.

FIGURE 4-24 Typical slip-joint pliers, which are also common household pliers. The slip joint allows the jaws to be opened to two different settings.

52. PLIERS Multigroove Adjustable Pliers
For gripping larger objects, a set of multigroove adjustable pliers is a commonly used tool of choice by many service technicians.
FIGURE 4-25 Multigroove adjustable pliers are known by many names, including the trade name “Channel Locks.”

53. PLIERS Linesman’s Pliers
FIGURE 4-26 A linesman’s pliers are very useful because they can help perform many automotive service jobs.

54. PLIERS Diagonal Pliers
Diagonal pliers are designed for cutting only.
The cutting jaws are set at an angle to make it easier to cut wires.
FIGURE 4-27 Diagonal-cut pliers are another common tool that has many names.

55. PLIERS Needle-Nose Pliers
Needle-nose pliers are designed to grip small objects or objects in tight locations.
Needle-nose pliers have long, pointed jaws, which allow the tips to reach into narrow openings or groups of small objects.
FIGURE 4-28 Needle-nose pliers are used where there is limited access to a wire or pin that needs to be installed or removed.

56. PLIERS Locking Pliers
Locking pliers are adjustable pliers that can be locked to hold objects from moving.
FIGURE 4-29 Locking pliers are best known by their trade name Vise Grips®.

57. PLIERS Snap-Ring Pliers
Snap-ring pliers are used to remove and install snap rings.
FIGURE 4-30 Snap-ring pliers are also called lock-ring pliers and are designed to remove internal and external snap rings (lock rings).

58. PLIERS Files
Files are used to smooth metal and are constructed of hardened steel with diagonal rows of teeth.
FIGURE 4-31 Files come in many different shapes and sizes. Never use a file without a handle.

59. CUTTERS Snips
Service technicians are often asked to fabricate sheet metal brackets or heat shields and need to use one or more types of cutters available.
The simplest is called tin snips, which are designed to make straight cuts in a variety of materials, such as sheet steel, aluminum, or even fabric.

60. CUTTERS Snips
FIGURE 4-32 Tin snips are used to cut thin sheets of metal or carpet.

61. CUTTERS Utility Knife

FIGURE 4-33 A utility knife uses replaceable blades and is used to cut carpet and other materials.

62. PUNCHES AND CHISELS Punches
A punch is a small diameter steel rod that has a smaller diameter ground at one end.
A punch is used to drive a pin out that is used to retain two components.
FIGURE 4-34 A punch used to drive pins from assembled components. This type of punch is also called a pin punch.

63. PUNCHES AND CHISELS Chisels
A chisel has a straight, sharp cutting end that is used for cutting off rivets or to separate two pieces of an assembly.
FIGURE 4-35 Warning stamped in the side of a punch warning that goggles should be worn when using this tool. Always follow safety warnings.

64. PUNCHES AND CHISELS Chisels
FIGURE 4-36 Use a grinder or a file to remove the mushroom material on the end of a punch or chisel.

65. REMOVERS
Removers are tools used to remove damaged fasteners.

66. REMOVERS Damaged Heads
If the bolt head or a nut becomes damaged or rounded, there are two special tools that can be used, including:
Stud remover
Nut splitter

67. REMOVERS Damaged Heads
FIGURE 4-37 A stud remover uses an offset serrated wheel to grasp the stud so it will be rotated when a ratchet or breaker bar is used to rotate the
assembly.
FIGURE 4-38 A nut splitter is used to split a nut that cannot be removed. After the nut has been split, a chisel is then used to remove the nut.

68. REMOVERS Broken Bolts, Studs, or Screws
Often, bolts, studs, or screws break even with, or below, the surface, making stud removal tools impossible to use.
Bolt extractors are commonly called “easy outs.”
FIGURE 4-39 A set of bolt extractors, commonly called easy outs.

69. THE WAX TRICK
Many technicians heat the fastener using a torch and then apply paraffin wax or a candle to the heated fastener.
FIGURE 4-40 Removing plugs or bolts is easier if the plug is first heated to cherry red color, using a torch, and then applying wax. During cooling, the wax flows in between the threads, making it easier to remove.

70. HACKSAWS
A hacksaw is used to cut metals, such as steel, aluminum, brass, or copper.
The cutting blade of a hacksaw is replaceable and the sharpness and number of teeth can be varied to meet the needs of the job.
FIGURE 4-41 A typical hacksaw that is used to cut metal. If cutting sheet metal or thin objects, a blade with more teeth should be used.

71. TOOL SETS AND ACCESSORIES
A beginning service technician may wish to start with a small set of tools before spending a lot of money on an expensive, extensive tool box.
FIGURE 4-42 A typical beginning technician tool set that includes the basic tools to get started.

78. USE A BINDER CLIP
A binder clip (size 1 1/4 inches wide) is used by wise technicians to help keep fender covers in place.
FIGURE 4-48 A binder clip being used to keep a fender cover from falling.

79. HAND TOOL MAINTENANCE
Most hand tools are constructed of rust-resistant metals but they can still rust or corrode if not properly maintained.
For best results and long tool life, the following steps should be taken:
Clean each tool before placing it back into the tool box.
Keep tools separated.
Line the drawers of the tool box with a material that will prevent the tools from moving as the drawers are opened and closed.
Release the tension on all “clicker-type” torque wrenches.
Keep the tool box secure.
