Study Notes
Occupational Health and Safety Standard
- Contingency measures for workplace emergencies, including accidents and fires, are established and recognized.
- Personal protective equipment (PPE) must be used correctly per organizational procedures.
- Identify workplace hazards and related indicators to minimize risks to colleagues and the environment.
- Use precautions to protect computer components from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
- Handle components by their edges, avoiding contact with integrated circuits.
- Follow manufacturer instructions for equipment to ensure safety and proper usage.
- Avoid using excessive force when assembling or disassembling components.
Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control
- Employ the "Think Safe Steps": Spot the hazard, assess the risk, and make necessary changes to reduce risks.
- Spotting hazards includes being alert to frayed cords, precarious stacking, or loud machinery.
- Assess the risk by determining the likelihood and potential severity of harm.
- Report hazards that cannot be resolved directly to a supervisor or safety representative.
- Wear rubber-soled shoes to prevent electrical shock.
The 5S Quality Tool
- 5S is a methodology for lean production and visual control, originating from five Japanese terms.
- Seiri (Sort): Separate needed items from unneeded materials.
- Seiton (Set in Order): Neatly arrange and label tools and parts for accessibility.
- Seiso (Shine): Conduct clean-up efforts regularly.
- Seiketsu (Standardize): Make cleaning and organizing a daily practice.
- Shitsuke (Sustain): Cultivate a habit of consistency in applying the first four S's.
5S Program Benefits
- Improved safety and equipment availability.
- Reduced defect rates and operational costs.
- Enhanced employee morale and workspace efficiency.
- Improved organizational image to customers and stakeholders.
Classification of Hardware Tools
- Essential toolkit for computer assembly and repairs includes:
- Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) tools: Prevent electrical damage to components.
- Hand tools: Essential for assembly and repairs.
- Cleaning tools: Maintain cleanliness for effective operation.
- Diagnostic tools: Assess equipment functionality.
Maintaining Tools and Equipment
- Regular maintenance schedules based on manufacturer recommendations are crucial.
- Essential practices include tagging damaged tools and maintaining proper records.
- Properly store and label tools to facilitate easy access and accountability.
Disassembly of Computer
- Start by unplugging all cables for safety.
- Open the computer case by unscrewing the back screws.
- Remove the system fan by unplugging and unscrewing it.
- Carefully remove the CPU fan located above the CPU heat sink.
- Disconnect all power supply wires from the motherboard and drives.
- Remove the CD/DVD drive and hard drive by unplugging their respective cables and securing tabs.
- To remove RAM, push down the tabs holding it in place.
- Unscrew and carefully lift out the motherboard.
Assembly of Computer
- Prepare the workspace by ensuring sufficient organization and safety measures.
- Inspect and familiarize yourself with the motherboard and its layout before installation.
- Install the CPU by aligning pins correctly and securing it with the lever.
- Attach the CPU heat sink according to manufacturer directions, applying thermal grease if necessary.
- Insert RAM modules firmly into their sockets, following dual-channel configurations as needed.
