Tools, ESD Control and Repair Workspace
Choose tools that fit the fasteners and adhesives without turning a controlled repair into accidental damage.
Choose tools that fit the fasteners and adhesives without turning a controlled repair into accidental damage.
Core ideas
- Use model-appropriate drivers, plastic picks, suction tools, blunt tweezers, organised screw storage and eye protection.
- Control static electricity, dust and loose metal objects; never use a metal blade near an exposed battery.
- Use measured, even heat only when the manufacturer guide requires adhesive softening.
Decision rule
If a tool must be forced, it is probably the wrong tool, the wrong angle or the wrong step.
