29
Q

Excavation:

A

cut, cavity, trench, or depression made by removing earth

30
Q

Two basic ways to shape an excavation:

A

Benches and simple slope

31
Q

Benching:

A

the soil is excavated to form one or more steps or horizontal levels.

32
Q

Simple slope or benched excavations more than X’ must be designed by a registered engineer

A

20’

33
Q

Always X before you dig

A

Call, local utilities must be contacted in order to determine location of existing underground utility lines

34
Q

Proper slope depends on

A

soil type

35
Q

Soil and equipment must be kept at least X’ away from edge of excavation:

A

2 feet

36
Q

Standing water must be X

A

pumped out of the excavation

37
Q

Pneumatic tool:

A

a tool powered by compressed air

38
Q

Most nailers and staplers operate on pressure of X to Y psi

A

60 to 120psi

39
Q

Pneumatic Tools: When choosing a tool for a particular application, first determine the X, then find a tool that will Y

A

type and size of fastener needer Tool that will drive that fastener

40
Q

How a nailer works: The trigger must be X and the Y

A

pulled and the nose piece must be pressed against the work piece before the tool can be fired.

41
Q

Sequential Trip:

A

prevents the tool from firing unless the nose is pressed against the work piece before the trigger is pulled

42
Q

Contact trip:

A

These nail guns do not have the safety feature of the sequential trip.

43
Q

Nails do not always go in straight and may fishhook out one side of the wood. Keep your hand at least X” to one side of the impact point.

A

6”

44
Q

How do you maintain Pneumatic Tools?

A

Store the tool at room temp Lubricate the gaskets on a regular bases check the magazine which holds the fasteners as it may become clogged with dirt

45
Q

What is a gasket?

A

piece of flexible material that keeps liquids or air from moving between parts of the tool.

46
Q

An air compressor:

A

squeezes air into an air storage tank

47
Q

Regulator:

A

valve that controls the air pressure reaching a nailer or a stapler.

48
Q

Air-storage tank is usually a cylinder holding X to Y gallons of air

A

1 to 10

49
Q

A pressure gauge measures X A line gauge measure Y

A

pressure in the tank pressure in the hose leading to the tool

50
Q

Air compressor maintenance: Maintain the proper X level in the pump:

A

Oil

51
Q

Air compressor maintenance: Release the X in the X at the end of each day. This helps to clear any Y in the tank.

A

Air in the air-storage Moisture

52
Q

Air compressor maintenance: Air can be released by opening the X

A

drain petcocks

53
Q

Air compressor maintenance: Clean the X filter on the pump regularly. This filter traps dirt, moisture and other contaminants.

A

air intake

54
Q

Air compressor maintenance: The vibrations of an air compressor can X over time.

A

Loosen fittings

55
Q

Air compressor maintenance: check the X

A

drive belt. Replace if worn or damaged

56
Q

Air compressor maintenance: Check the X on the regulator periodically.

A

pressure gauge

57
Q

Air Compressor Capacity: What determines the amount of air needed?

A

The rate, frequency of tool use and the type of nails or fasteners you are using.

58
Q

Signs of low air supply:

A

air leakage, fasteners that are not set at the proper depth, skipped shots

59
Q

volume of air in compressors is measured in

A

cfm (cubic feet per minute)

60
Q

Air Hose: a hose supplying air to a tool should have a minimum working pressure rating that is X higher than the maximum pressure delivered by the compressor

A

50%

61
Q

Air hoses: Do not use hoses larger than X feet

A

100’

62
Q

Coordless tools are:

A

self contained and do not require a hose and air compressor.

63
Q

How do coordless tools work:

internal combustion engine.

64
Q

Maintaining Coordless Tools: Charge the X and replace the Y as needed. Be sure to use the correct Y. They are sometimes color-coded.

A

Battery Fuel cylinders

65
Q

Maintaining Coordless Tools: Periodically clean the x

A

combustion chmber with aerosol degreaser Combustion chamber filter The nosepiece.

66
Q

Maintaining Coordless Tools: Use what to remove asphalt

A

putty knife

67
Q
