• Proper maintenance of hand files and how they are normally protected from rust • What happens to metal filings (swarf) when a file’s teeth are clogged or the surface is lubricated • The meaning of each option: overheating, pinning, fast cutting, binding in the context of using a file

💭 Think About

• Think about whether a file is usually used dry or oiled, and why that is the standard practice in workshops and on board vessels • Consider how oil on the file’s surface would affect the ability of the teeth to bite into the metal and clear away chips • Ask yourself which of the listed problems is directly related to teeth filling up with small metal particles instead of staying sharp and clear

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which condition occurs when metal particles pack into the file teeth, changing its cutting action • Check which option describes a result of the file not clearing chips properly as you stroke it across the work • Eliminate any options that are more associated with rotating machinery (like drills or saws) rather than a hand file
