Essential Repair Tool List
- Adjustable Spanner Wrench- Used for changing grinding wheels. This wrench is adjustable, eliminating the need to buy different-sized wrenches for different grinders.
- 3-Jaw Bearing puller- Very useful for removing bearings from just about any tool. Removes gears too.
- Bearing Separator- When a bearing is flush against another part, like an armature bearing against the commutator, a bearing separator is first needed to create space between the bearing and the armature. Once the bearing separator is used, a bearing puller will have access behind the bearing to get it out.
- Torx Driver Bits- A majority of manufacturers are switching to torx screws, so torx driver bits are becoming increasingly important. These bits are 6 inches, reaching those screws deep inside a tool's housing.
- Folding Torx Key Set- Light and compact, this key set makes it easy to reach where a cordless drill/driver can't. This set includes sizes T10, T15, T20, T25, T27, T30, and T-40
- 6-piece Snap Ring Plier Set- These are two-way adjustable pliers that are best for removing retaining rings, which can be very difficult without the right tool.
- 7-piece Drive Pin Punch Set- Knocking out roll pins, bearings, won't be challenging with this pin punch set. These are handy for countless little applications.
- Ten-in-one Screwdriver- This ratcheting screwdriver includes three different bits: flat-head, phillips, and torx. The versatility of this kind of 10-in-1 driver set can't be beat.
- Wire Cutters- Using a knife or other blade is risky for cutting wires and removing electrical insulation. An inexpensive set of wire cutters will be safe and effective.
- Multimeter- A multimeter (or multitester) is a must for diagnosing electrical problems in power tools. They are inexpensive and highly useful.
- Soldering Kit- Dozens of tool and machine repairs will require a little soldering, and a good kit soldering kit is worth every penny for most power tool and machine owners.
- Braided De-Soldering Tape- This special soldering tape is used with a soldering iron to remove existing soldering on electronic parts, like motors and switches. It is highly useful for making electronic repairs without damaging tool parts.
