REFRIGERATION TOOLS AND MATERIALS

The refrigeration serviceman's job consists mainly of performing rather basic mechanical operations using common tools and materials. There are three basic principles which should guide the serviceman:

1, Know what needs to be done.

2, Select the proper tools and materials.

3, Keep all refrigeration mechanisms clean and dry.

This chapter is carefully planned to give the refrigeration and air conditioning serviceman the necessary basic knowledge concerning tools and materials used in this industry. In addition, directions are given concerning the selection of proper tools and materials and the correct and safe handling of tools used in the many types of refrigeration work.
