TOOL AND EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE
All tools and equipment must be properly maintained so that workers are not endangered. Regulations require inspections of tools, machines and equipment before use.
Preventive maintenance is the systematic care and protection of tools, equipment and machines in order to keep them in a safe, usable condition, limit downtime and extend productivity. We must always be aware that maintenance tasks themselves are potentially hazardous and can result in injury. The successful maintenance program is:
well organized and scheduled,
controls hazards,
defines operational procedures, and
trains key personnel.
The degree of detail to include regarding tools and
equipment maintenance will depend on the kinds of
tools/equipment used. Some construction equipment
may have very specific inspection and maintenance
requirements. Electronic equipment may have
different maintenance requirements. Hand tools may require only basic maintenance. Power tools should
be maintained in good working order. This may be limited to ensuring that blades/bits are replaced when needed and those guards or other safety devices are operable and any damaged electrical cords/plugs

1 are repaired or replaced. Damaged or defective equipment/tools should be tagged and removed from service.
Most manufacturers can provide maintenance schedules for their equipment. Large companies typically have a comprehensive maintenance program due to the capital investment and/or leasing agreements. Smaller companies may lease equipment and maintenance services may be included in the leasing agreement.
General requirements for tools and equipment maintenance include:
Obtaining a copy of the maintenance schedule recommended by the manufacturer
Ensuring that maintenance is performed as required
Ensuring that the person(s) performing the maintenance are competent (e.g. licensed mechanic)
Retaining records of maintenance/service conducted
Specifying who is responsible for overseeing equipment maintenance and where the records are kept
Set up a system for removal and tagging of damaged or defective tools and equipment
PROPER STORAGE OF TOOLS, PARTS, AND EQUIPMENT
To ensure that tools and equipment remain in good condition and last for a long time, store them properly. Properly stored tools and equipment will be easy to find when needed and are less likely to be lost.
Good practices include:
Parts should be properly stored and labeled (Figure 1).
Tools should be properly placed on the board, and labeled (Figure 2). Consider
drawing the shapes of the tools on the board so that they always get put back in the
same position.
Use bins for storing small parts (Figure 3).
Consider making an individual (or individuals) responsible for the good maintenance
of tools and parts.
