2 Compressed Air  Air compressor provides compressed air  Turns on and off automatically to maintain a preset pressure in the system  Metal air lines feed several locations in the shop

3 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Air Hoses  Made of flexible, high-pressure hose  Quick-disconnect connectors – pull the sleeve back on the female connector and insert the male connector. Release sleeve

4 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Other Components  Pressure regulator  Can be adjusted to lower and raise air pressure  Filter  traps water from the air

5 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc.  Use air pressure for operation  Always lubricate an air tool before use  a few drops of oil protects the internal parts of the tool

6 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Impact Wrench Quickly removes fasteners. Commonly used on auto lug nuts. Do not use to tighten nuts and bolts.

7 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Air Ratchet Designed to work in a limited space. Does not have high torque like an impact. Can also be moved manually.

8 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Impact Sockets and Extensions  Must be used with air wrenches  Much stronger than conventional sockets and extensions  Impact tools are flat black, instead of chrome

9 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Air Hammer (Chisel)  Works just like a chisel  Capable of producing about 1000-4000 impacts per minute  Several cutting or hammering attachments are available

10 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Air Hammer (Chisel)

11 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Blowgun  Cleans parts with a blast of air  When using a blowgun:  wear eye protection  do not spray yourself or others  direct the blast of air away from yourself and others  Do not spray anything which is toxic to breathe

12 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Rotary File or Die Grinder Used for quick de-burring, smoothing edges or opening holes

13 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Bench Grinder

14 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Bench Grinder  Used for grinding, cleaning, or polishing  Only grind steel on grinding wheels  Most wheels are made out of aluminum oxide  Wire wheels are for polishing and rust removal  Do not wear gloves while operating

15 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Using a Bench Grinder  Rest or brace your piece on the the tool rest  Make sure tool rest is adjusted as close to the wheel as possible  Move piece side to side to evenly wear the grinding wheel  Wheels rotate downwards

16 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Drill Bits  Used to make holes in metal and plastic parts – the flutes carry out chips  Made of carbon steel, high-speed steel, cobalt, titanium-nitride or other materials  Your drill bit must be made from a material that is harder than what you are drilling

17 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Chuck Key Used to tighten a drill bit in the drill chuck

18 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Drill Press  Holds drill bit perpendicular to the work table  Drills straighter holes than a hand drill  Handle allows the bit to be pressed into the work with increased force

19 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Drill Press Rules  Remove the key from the chuck before turning on the drill press  Secure the part to be drilled in a vise or with C-clamps  Use a center punch to indent the part and start the hole  Release pressure right before the bit breaks through the bottom of the part  Oil the bit as needed

20 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Floor Jack  Used to raise either the front, sides, or rear of a vehicle  To avoid vehicle damage, place the pad under a solid part of the car such as the frame, suspension arm or axle housing

21 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Jack Stands After raising a vehicle with a jack, always support it with jack stands placed under the frame, axle housing, or suspension arm

22 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Engine Crane Uses a hydraulic hand jack for raising engines and a pressure-release valve for lowering engines

23 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Arbor Press  Creates pressing force by mechanical means  Operating pressure is much lower than a hydraulic press  Suited for smaller jobs

24 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Hydraulic Press  Used to press parts apart or together  More force than an arbor press  Parts must be well braced

25 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Engine Stand  Used to hold an engine once it is removed from the vehicle  Engine bolts to the stand  Engine can usually be rotated and held in different positions, making it easy to work on

26 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Solvent Tank Contains a pump, reservoir, and solvent– used to remove grease and oil from parts

27 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. High-Pressure Washer

28 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. High-Pressure Washer  Blasts parts with 2000+ psi of water  Remember to turn the water on BEFORE starting the engine  Do not spray people!  Do not force water into bearings or seals

29 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Pullers  Used to remove seals, gears, pulleys, steering wheels, axles, and other pressed-on parts

30 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Creeper  Used to roll under cars  Don’t leave it on the ground  Never stand on it

31 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Disc Sander  Rotates at 3600 rpm  Sands wood, steel, aluminum, copper, brass  Rotates both directions depending on switch  Rest work piece on table so that the wheel rotates down towards it  Do not jam corners into the disk

32 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Sand Blast Cabinet  Blasts parts with sand at 120 psi  Used to remove paint and rust  Never blast oily or greasy parts  Do not point gun at the window

33 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Chop Saw  Cut steel only  Clamp work tightly  Support long work with a stand  Beware of sparks

34 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Hand Grinder  Grind steel only  Hold securely  Note the direction the wheel rotates  Use 2 hands  Watch sparks

35 © Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Vertical Band Saw  Place work on table  Adjust the guard so it is just above the work  Push through steadily  Always hold your hands and fingers so they aren’t inline with the blade
