Maintenance Schedule- Is a list allocating specific maintenance of an area. Equipment and tools to a specific period. The maintenance schedule is just a part of the maintenance program.

C. MAINTAINING TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT

Tools/instruments and equipment are essential parts of any trade. To be proficient, one must be able to use and maintain a large variety of field and shop tools effectively. The main thing is that its important to keep the tools sharp and in good shape. It is important to realize the value of proper maintenance of all your tools and equipment. Preventive maintenance is the systematic care and protection of tools, equipment, machines and vehicles 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. Power tools should be maintained in good working order. This may be limited to ensuring that blades/bits are replaced when needed and that guards or other safety devices are operable and any damaged electrical cords/plugs are repaired or replaced. Damaged or defective equipment/tools should be tagged and removed from service.
JZGMSAT UTILIZATION OF TOOLS/INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT Page 10 of 17

General requirements for 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. Tools and Equipment Maintenance Program This policy is intended to highlight the importance of proper maintenance as a vital part of a safety program. In addition to ensuring that workers use the tools and equipment properly, it is vital that tools and equipment be properly inspected, maintained, and kept in good repair. The maintenance program will reduce the risk of injury, damage and lost production. Ensure that all tools and equipment are well maintained in order to reduce the risk of accidents or injuries. 1. 2. 3. 4. Only properly trained workers are to use tools and equipment Inspect all tools and equipment before using. If applicable, maintenance schedules for all tools and equipment are to be respected. Appropriate personnel should conduct regular inspection of all tools, equipment and vehicles on the site. This inspection is recorded using an Inspection Checklist. 5. If at any time a worker judges that a tool or equipment is unsafe for use, they are to properly tag the item and inform the supervisor immediately. 6. Tools and equipment that are tagged unsafe shall be either repaired or replaced. Supervisor shall be informed. In order to perform the maintenance of specific equipment, a Maintenance Schedule is drawn to guide the personnel in the proper methods system . One best source of the list of the maintenance activities of an equipment is its manufacturers manual, In the absence of it, the plan can be derived from the known maintenance methods of the equipment. Below is the sample Equipment Maintenance Schedule For Desktop Computer in the Practical Work area/ Computer Laboratory of a Training Center for Computer Hardware Servicing. You may see that that this maintenance schedule is for a specific equipment only, denoted by unique property code.

D. REQUIREMENTS FOR CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF TOOLS

After use, tools should be cleaned off and left dry. A coating of oil or rust inhibitor is a good way of finishing off the cleaning process. Cleaning may involve removing the materials you have been working with and using. Finishing off with a spray of WD40 or wiping tools with an oily rag (if made of steel) is an excellent way to prevent rust from damaging tools. Maintenance of tools can be carried out as they put back into storage so that they are in good condition for the next user. These may involve sharpening of blades. Other checks should be made on tools such as: Is the handle or head of tool loose? Are tools out of shape (jaws of plier meet, straight edge still straight)? Are any parts missing (end section of ruler or tape)? Are wooden handles splintered or broken (hammer, chisels)? 1. HAND TOOLS a) Clean the given tools using a clean cloth. Use brush to remove dust and dirt on hard to reach areas.
JZGMSAT UTILIZATION OF TOOLS/INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT Page 12 of 17

b) Remove rust, on metal parts of the tools using sand paper. Stubborn cement on tools should be removed using scraper. c) Apply a thin coat of oil on metal surfaces of hand tools to prevent it from rusting. d) After cleaning, replace the sharp edges of the tools using its cover or scabbard or wrap the plumb bob in oil-soaked paper. e) Keep the tools on its proper storage area and/or rack after cleaning. f) Segregate and label non-functional tools.

2. ELECTRICAL POWER TOOLS a) Keep all power tools, especially the housing intake and exhaust holes, clear and free of dust and dirt at all times. b) Examine power-tool cords for exposed loose wires and for damaged insulation. c) Wipe power cords frequently to prevent deterioration from oil or grease. d) Check cord plugs for loose prongs or cracked casings. e) Never hold or drag electrical tools by the cord. f) Apply a light coat of oil to the cutting surfaces of tools to prevent rusting.

g) Store power tools in their properly designated containers when not in use. h) Segregate and label non-functional equipment according to classification.

F. INVENTORY OF TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT

Purpose of Tools and Equipment Inventory The purpose of inventory of tools and equipment is to establish a formal method of strengthening controls and safeguarding tools and equipment most vulnerable to theft and loss by identifying inventory units, assigning responsibility for and frequency of verification and documenting loss. An inventory of tools and equipment will be maintained and updated on a regular basis. These inventories will include hand tools, power tools, pneumatic and hydraulic tools and equipment, measuring and testing equipment, compressors, electric and electronic tools and equipment. Procedure 1. Personnel whose position requires tool and equipment assignment will complete a "Tool and Equipment Inventory Form" for these assigned tools and equipment. The inventory list will identify all assigned storage area related tools and equipment for which the individual is responsible. 2. Assign the responsibility for review and approval of completed inventory lists or changes to inventory items or quantities for all employees assigned tools and equipment. 3. All personnel assigned or utilizing tools and equipment will be responsible for assuring their safe and proper use and will closely monitor their own assigned tools and equipment on an on-going basis, making sure all lost or stolen equipment is reported to their supervisor for replacement. 4. Submit "Tool Replacement Form" prior to requisitioning for replacement of worn, damaged, lost or stolen tools and equipment. Worn or damaged tools and equipment will be sent for replacement. 5. The trainer/staff conduct a full physical inventory regularly. A full inventory requires that all tools and equipment be counted and verified and inventory forms completed and submitted for review.

G. TOOL SAFE-KEEPING/STORAGE
Its is important to store tools correctly to gain the maximum life out of these tools. Tools that have sharp edges such as chisels and saws will blunt if stored for transport with other tools. To avoid this, covers and protecting guards should be put around tools. Storage of tools in a workshop or storage box can make use of a shadow board. This is a board fixed to the wall with nails or other fixings to place tools on and the outline of the tool painted (often in black) onto the board. This enable tools to be easily replaced in the same place and missing tools to be easily identified. When tools are replaced, if the replacement tools has a different shape to the original tool, the new shape can be painted on to the board. Storing and Protecting Tools 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Use plastic cutlery trays to store small tools and drill bits, fasteners Use lidded buckets to storage of extension cords, wire, rope Use recycled jars for keeping fasteners separate from tools (see through plastic is the best as these are unbreakable and easy to identify contents) Use holes in handles of tools to hang these (e.g. from shadow board) Use a bull dog clip or similar to clip instructions and maintenance directions for tools on same hook or peg as the tools Lay a strip of felt on the bottom of the tool boxes as extra protection for tools Empty out tool boxes periodically and get rid of dust and dirt that accumulates there (wipe over with an oily cloth or spray with WD40 while emptying) Apply sump oil (from garage or workshops) to your tool box to absorb moisture and prevent rust

9. Keep a magnet in your tool box to pick up screws and nails, etc., that you drop
