The PPE that should be worn when operating the portable disc grinder is
long sleeves, gloves, face shield, safety glasses.
The portable disc grinder when laid down should be positioned on
the tool rest with the grinding disc facing up.
It is only necessary to tighten the disc lock nut snuggly when the disc is replaced on the portable disc because
the natural rotation of the disc and spindle will cause the threads to tighten.
A good grinding wheel will have a _____ sound when it is sounded.
ringing
When using the bench grinder, grinding should be done only on the upper ___ of the grinding wheel.
1/2
A grinder tool rest should never be more than ____ from the grinding wheel.
1/8 inch

exceed
A grinding wheel should be replaced when worn to ____ of its original diameter.
1/2
Grinding wheels which produce the smoothest grinding surface have a _______ #, example 120.
high grit
A Jacobs chuck should be used with a
straight shank twist drill.
To select the proper twist drill, one should check
size, sharpness and type of shank.
Maintaining enough __________ to keep the bit cutting at all times should be done while drilling metal with a drill press.
feed pressure
Metal chips should be removed from the drill press by using a
brush
To prevent seizing one should ________ feed pressure when the hole is about finished.
reduce

No
DCEN stands for
Direct Current Electrode Negative.
AC stands for
Alternating current
Right Hand threads are on the

off to the side
______ is the space left in the metal as the metal is removed during a cut.
Kerf
A _____ is present in any electrical discharge.
plasma
Plasma arc cutting has ________ than oxy/fuel cutting.
less distortion
metals that can be cut with the plasma arc cutter
aluminum, stainless and carbon steel and more
The __________ is critical to producing quality plasma cuts.
nozzle standoff distance
the minimum shade lens required for plasma arc cutting.
4-5
The fume plume for plasma arc cutting is
Large and needs to be well ventilated.
Carbon steel does ____ give off a toxic fume.
NOT
Hydrogen gas is generated when
Aluminum is cut with the plasma arc cutter in the presence of water or moisture.
A toxic phosgene gas may be generated if plasma arc cutting takes place in the presence of
vapors from chlorinated solvents and cleaners.
Electrical shock is more of a possibility in the _____ arc cutting process than with arc welding process because of the high voltage and amperage used.
plasma
70 psi
the approximate air pressure that must be present to activate most plasma arc cutters.
The travel speed of the plasma arc cutting machine must be slowed down when the metal being cut is _____
thick
Use a _________ with the plasma arc cutter to be assured of getting good straight cuts.
straight edge
If the quality of the cut deteriorates with the plasma arc cutter .........
the constricting nozzle needs replacing and/or the electrode needs replacing.
DCEP stands for:
Direct Current Electrode Positive.
Three safety precautions that should be applied to all forms of arc welding;
Do not weld in wet areas Never change polarity while welding machine is running Never look at the arc, shield others
Undercut is a trench at either toe of the weld caused by
too much heat and/or wrong rod angle.
DCSP stands for:
Direct Current Straight Polarity.
DCRP stands for:
Direct Current Reverse Polarity.
A __________ should be used for lighting a torch.
friction lighter
A fractured grinding wheel will have a ________ when it is sounded.
Dull sound
If excessive pressure is applied to a grinding wheel it is likely to cause
a chipped grinding wheel.
The purpose of standing to the side when the grinder is turned on is to keep from
getting hit by flying debris
When operating the portable disc grinder the grinding disc should be positioned so the sparks and grit are thrown
away from the operator and others in the work area.
#14
