Kretzer tools, also known as hand tools, are distinguished from power tools. They primarily rely on manual force to turn or apply pressure. Hand tools are categorized by use into wrenches, pliers, screwdrivers, tape measures, hammers, sockets, cutting tools, scissors, tool sets, and auxiliary items such as tool carts, with each category having different models. Wrenches include open-end wrenches (fixed wrenches), double box-end wrenches, ratchet wrenches (quick wrenches), combination wrenches, pipe wrenches, T-type socket wrenches, cross socket wrenches, adjustable wrenches, etc.; pliers include wire cutters, needle-nose pliers, diagonal cutters, snap-ring pliers, slip-joint pliers, water pump pliers, pipe pliers, locking pliers, etc.; screwdrivers include slotted, Phillips, Pozidriv, hex, and Torx types; sockets are divided into standard sockets, Torx sockets (E-type sockets), bit sockets (BIT sockets), spark plug sockets, impact sockets, etc. Common specifications include 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2", where " denotes inches; each specification is further divided into 6-point sockets and 12-point sockets; hammers include claw hammers, machinist hammers, ball-peen hammers, rubber mallets, and installation hammers; cutting tools include files, diamond files, tin snips, aviation snips, utility knives, square tube saws, pipe cutters, bolt cutters, etc. Materials include chrome vanadium steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel.

Kretzer tool classification

1) Electric planer: One of the main tools used in carpentry and renovation. It is primarily used for planing flat and straight surfaces of various woods. Products are divided into short planers and rough planers. Rough planers are mainly used for planing flat wood surfaces and can process larger board surfaces; short planers, in addition to planing boards, can be used with various guides to plane tongues, borders, and grooves. The main features of handheld electric planers are small size, light weight, portability, and ease of use. Compared with manual tools, they significantly reduce labor intensity and improve processing efficiency and quality. When using a handheld electric planer, hold the handle at the rear of the planer body with your right hand and slightly raise the rear center of gravity. After starting the power with your left hand, hold the guide handle at the front of the planer, keeping the front center of gravity lower, and follow the sequence of contacting the wood with the front of the planer first. As the rear center of gravity steadily contacts the planing surface, push the planer body forward smoothly in the direction of planing with both hands. After completing the planing stroke, lift the front of the planer with your left hand, then pick it up with both hands and return to the starting point to continue planing until the work is complete. 2) Jigsaw: Also known as electric coping saws or electric fine saws. It is a multifunctional cutting tool that can cut wooden boards, as well as perform straight or curved cuts on plastic and metal sheets. It is particularly suitable for cutting complex shapes and geometric figures with small radii of curvature. It is an essential multifunctional sawing tool for home renovation and various public interior decoration projects, featuring light weight, small size, portability, simple operation, and wide application range. Its cutting principle involves a narrow saw blade with upward-facing teeth that moves in a linear reciprocating motion up and down during operation to complete various cutting tasks according to size requirements. When used with a guide plate, it can also perform angled bevel processing. When using an electric jigsaw, fix smaller and thinner wooden boards to a workbench and support the workpiece with your left hand, then hold the saw handle with your right hand and push forward slowly. Apply steady and uniform force; do not exert excessive force to avoid injury or damage to the blade. For larger boards, ensure the board is securely fixed, then hold the saw handle with both hands and push forward. Follow the marked line during cutting and always keep the blade perpendicular to the board surface to prevent binding or jamming. 3) Circular saw: Also known as a small handheld circular saw. It is a new type of small handheld electric saw equipped with a spring-loaded automatic safety guard and an electronically controlled constant-speed motor. It features simple operation, flexibility, quick adjustment, and safety reliability, making it very suitable for home renovation tasks such as cutting various wooden boards and fiberboards. The thickness of wood or boards being cut should generally be less than 60mm. 4) Sanding tools: Also known as small handheld grinders. Primarily used for sanding bare wood before painting various wood finishes, and also for sanding putty surfaces. However, sanding putty generates significant dust, which seriously pollutes the environment, so enhanced personal protective equipment is required during operation. Handheld grinders include belt sanders and orbital sanders. Belt sanders are mainly used for rapid sanding of wooden components and products, while orbital sanders are commonly used for sanding larger areas such as wooden floors in home renovations. 5) Small router: Also known as a groove planner or trimmer. It can be used to cut grooves, tenons, holes, edges, milling, and trimming on various wooden products and components. It can also perform simple edge cutting, milling, grooving, and trimming on light metal materials such as aluminum alloy and plastic steel, such as aluminum alloy (or plastic steel) doors and windows, balcony frames, and furniture frames. Therefore, it is also one of the commonly used power tools in modern home renovation projects.

Kretzer tool precautions

Large saws are commonly used for wide and thick boards; small saws are used for narrow and thin lumber; coarse saws are used for cross-cutting; fine saws are used for tenon heads and shoulders. Saw blades with a wider set are used for hardwoods and wet wood, while saw blades with a narrower set are used for softwoods and dry wood. When using saws, strict attention must be paid to safe operating methods for each type: 1) Before using a frame saw, adjust the blade angle with the knob; conventionally, it should form an angle of 45° with the plane of the wooden frame. Tighten the tension cord with the toggle to keep the blade straight and taut. When starting the cut, hold the saw handle firmly with your right hand and place your left hand at the starting point, gently pushing and pulling a few times. Do not exert excessive force; do not twist the saw left or right during cutting. Apply heavy pressure on the forward stroke and light pressure on the return stroke, maintaining a uniform rhythm. Hold the part being cut off steady with your hand when nearing the end of the cut. Loosen the blade after use and hang it in a secure location. 2) When using a crosscut saw, apply balanced force with both hands to prevent the saw from drifting toward the side with greater force. Correct any deviation slowly to prevent binding or breaking the blade. 3) When using a wire saw, do not pull too forcefully or too quickly to avoid breaking the wire. During operation, do not position your head above the upper end of the bow frame to avoid facial injury if the wire breaks. 4) Regularly check the sharpness of the blade and the stability of the saw frame and handle. Repair blades with dull or uneven teeth promptly. Repair or replace damaged cords, nuts, knobs, handles, and wooden frames before continuing use.

Kretzer tool usage

1) Carefully inspect the tool before use. Ensure there is no external damage, the switch operates flexibly without sticking, and the power cord and tool housing are intact. Use a 500VV megohmmeter to measure the insulation resistance between the winding and the housing; the value must not be less than O.5 MΩ. Refer to the attached table for insulation resistance values. 2) Handheld power tools with metal housings must have a reliable protective ground connection. The power cord should be a multi-core soft rubber-sheathed cable, with the ground protection wire securely connected at both ends. 3) Handheld power tools should be operated by dedicated personnel with appropriate professional knowledge. Strictly adhere to relevant safety operating procedures during use. 4) Before use, check that all electrical and mechanical protective devices are intact and functioning normally. Also ensure that rotating parts move flexibly without sticking. 5) When using Class I handheld power tools, operators must wear prescribed protective equipment and use qualified protective gear. Implement appropriate anti-electric shock safety measures as required, such as installing residual current devices (RCDs) in the power circuit, or wearing insulating gloves and shoes, or standing on an insulating mat. When using Class II handheld power tools in damp and confined spaces, install a leakage switch with an operating current of less than 1.5mA and an operating time of less than or equal to 0.1 seconds. The leakage switch should be placed inside the container and monitored by a dedicated person. 6) Occupational hazards of using handheld power tools. Arm vibration disease caused by long-term exposure to hand-transmitted vibration was listed as one of China's statutory occupational diseases in 1957, also known as local vibration disease, typically manifested by episodic white finger.
