  2. Chapter 4 Shop Tools

  3. Shop Tools • Chapter Overview • This chapter will present some of the more commonly used hand and power tools with which every technician must be familiar. Since units of measurement play such an important part in tool selection and in diagnosing automotive problems, this chapter begins with a presentation of measuring systems. Prior to the discussion on tools, there is a discussion on another topic that relates very much to measuring systems -- fasteners.

  4. Shop Tools • Chapter Objectives • List the basic units of measure for length, volume, and mass in the two measuring systems. • Describe the different types of fasteners used in the automotive industry. • List the various mechanical measuring tools used in the automotive shop. • Describe the proper procedure for measuring with a micrometer.

  5. Shop Tools • List some of the common hand tools used in auto repair. • Describe the use of common pneumatic, electrical, and hydraulic power tools found in an automotive service department. • Describe the different sources for service information that are available to technicians.

  11. Shop Tools • Reading a Metric Micrometer • Each number on the sleeve of the micrometer represents 5.0 millimeters. • Each of the ten equal spaces between each number, with index lines alternating above and below the horizontal line, represents 0.5 mm. • The beveled edge of the thimble is divided into 50 equal divisions with every fifth line numbered: 0,5,10, . . . 45. • As with the inch-graduated micrometer, the three separate readings are added together to obtain the total reading.
