Your tools need a vacation too! They have served you well on several jobs this year, so it's a good time to tune up your tools.
From cleaning to checking the accessories, a good adjustment is necessary in order to resume work with efficient tools that will not slow down your future projects. Outils Pierre Berger's parts and repair team offers many tips and advice to properly maintain your tools. A small investment of time, so that you can go on vacation with peace of mind.
Check the condition of your accessories
The efficiency of a tool is often linked to the good condition of its accessories. For example, a professional circular saw cannot do quality work with a blade in poor condition.
Renewing worn accessories will simplify your work. At Outils Pierre Berger, our advisors are trained and have the necessary knowledge to guide you. You will get personalized choices for your tasks.
Order the parts to be changed to receive them on time
Considering the current delays in obtaining parts, submit an order to the service department at the beginning of the vacations. This will ensure that worn or missing parts can be replaced quickly when the vacation returns.
If parts are neglected, the safety of the tool may be compromised. Being forward thinking will help you avoid silly accidents on the job.
Clean and maintain your tools
Cleaning your dirty tools will save you headaches on the job site. We have included our compressor maintenance guidelines to help guide you through this category.
5 other easy maintenance items that should be done throughout the year
- Blowing dust out of tools is necessary primarily for people who work with drywall. Drywall dust is fine, wet and abrasive. It gets trapped in tools and prevents them from ventilating properly.
- Replace sander pads and corks.
- Inspect the condition of the wires and plugs on your cables.
- Test saw guards and make sure springs are working properly.
- Sharpen the blades on your cutting tools. Outils Pierre Berger offers a professional sharpening service in a very reasonable time frame.
For all other repair and maintenance work on your tools, our service department in St-Hubert or Sherbrooke is there to help you from Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Giving one day of your vacation to the maintenance and updating of all your tools will become a habit that will pay off in the long run.
Have a great vacation!
