    What should be added to the air inlet of a pneumatic nail gun after every use?

    • Oil

    • Water

    • Dust

    • Answer option 4

    Correct Answer
    A. Oil
    Explanation
    Oil should be added to the air inlet of a pneumatic nail gun after every use. This is because the air inlet requires lubrication to ensure smooth operation and prevent damage to the internal components. Oil acts as a lubricant, reducing friction and extending the lifespan of the nail gun. Without regular oiling, the nail gun may experience increased wear and tear, leading to malfunctions and decreased performance. Therefore, adding oil to the air inlet is necessary maintenance for the proper functioning of a pneumatic nail gun.

    Before attempting repairs on a pneumatic nailer that is not firing, you should do what?

    • Adjust the pressure

    • Disconnect the air hose

    • Adjust the compressor

    • Answer option 4

    Correct Answer
    A. Disconnect the air hose
    Explanation
    Before attempting repairs on a pneumatic nailer that is not firing, it is important to disconnect the air hose. This is necessary to ensure the safety of the person working on the nailer.

    Correct Answer
    A. End grinder
    Explanation
    An end grinder is a tool used to smooth the inside of materials, such as a pipe.

    What should be the distance between the tool rest and the wheel on a bench grinder?

    • 1/8 inch

    • 1/2 inch

    • 1/4 inch

    • Answer option 4

    Correct Answer
    A. 1/8 inch
    Explanation
    The distance between the tool rest and the wheel on a bench grinder should be 1/8 inch. This is because having a small gap between the tool rest and the wheel allows for better control and precision when using the grinder. It also helps to prevent the tool from getting caught or jammed between the rest and the wheel, reducing the risk of accidents or damage to the tool.
