Overview

• Some other energy sources are natural resources such as running water or wind, direct fuel and propellant combustion. Tools operated with animal power are not considered to be power tools. Power tools are used in gardens, industry, construction, and housework such as cooking and cleaning. They are used for cutting, drilling, driving (fastening), grinding, shaping, milling, crushing, painting, polishing, heating, etc. Power tools are the most time-saving tools ever. By using electricity or combustion, they can perform tasks that traditional manual tools may or may not be able to do. Like most heavy equipment, power tools are prone to wear, breakdowns, and electrical problems. If you used to be the end of a belt sander, a smoker, or a miter saw, you know that tool failure is not an easy task. As with the repair of old cars, the reality of repairing old tools depends on whether parts are available or not.

  Power tools are divided into two categories: portable or stationary. Portable means handheld. These portable power tools have mobility advantages. Fixed tools, however, have accuracy and speed. Fixed power tools are usually large and cannot be moved easily. The portable tool is lightweight and can be held by a human hand. The fixed model offers the advantages of smoothness, powerful function and high precision, while the portable model offers mobility and versatility. Furniture repair are the work of hand tools. Some power tools make work quicker and easier. The only exception to be considered is the portable variable speed electric drill. With this power tool you can quickly machine holes for almost all materials. Many drills with various accessories are included: saw, grinder, lathe, etc.

  Repair worn power cord

  Safety is a top priority when overhauling old power tools. The power cord tears long in front of the steel and plastic of the tool body. Therefore, start before any other renovation, as you should never use power tools that damage cables or plugs. You can easily replace these wires with new wires.

  Check the security guard

  Before you start the old tool fixing, you should also make sure that the protection is intact and can be used normally. There is a reason to put the tool down first. This may be because it is too dangerous to use it. If a safety sign is missing, please contact the fixing and power tools to check if there is an alternative.

  Clean blades and edges

  Power tools rely on sharp drills and blades to get the best condition. Dirty and rusty saw blades or planning heads are very dangerous. Therefore, please remove them from the tool and clean them thoroughly with a rust remover, which you can soak, clean and brush.

  Repair damaged parts

  The handle and button will be damaged over time. It is best to use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) spare parts to repair defective or bent parts. If the manufacturer does not have the part, you can search online for the tool shop, the model and the product number of the parts in the spare parts market. If a defective part is an essential tool for its operation, its strength can be impaired. If it is determined that the damage is not a safety problem, please use the tool at your own risk.

  Change brush

  The power tool has two small brushes that are part of the electric motor. Over time, these signs of wear disappear and prevent the tool from starting or continuing to run. These brushes can be replaced, which gives your tool a new life. Before installing the brush, carefully wipe off dust and dirt and do not let any particles fall into the motor.

  Check the strap

  Most grinders are belt driven, and a common mistake with older grinders is a broken belt. If you hear the tool tightening but nothing happens, the belt is likely broken.

  Always check the trigger

  Triggers are another common point of failure. Open the tool and check all trigger contacts and springs. Spring wear prevents the trigger from completing the entire circuit that drives the tool.

  Use oil on your tools

  Apply dry lubricant to all moving parts of the tool. Open the tool to lubricate the internal gears. Do not use petroleum-based greases as they pull dust and dirt into the delicate parts of the tool.

  If you still have problems after the tool has been repaired, you can contact a fixing and power tool center to assess the condition of the tool and provide an estimate of its reparability.
