"Inspect grooving tools for wear on a frequent and regular basis. The rapidity of wear depends on the material from which the tool is made and the types of soils being tested. Sandy soils cause rapid wear of grooving tools; therefore, when testing these materials, tools should be inspected more frequently than for other soils. Any tool with a tip width greater than 2.1 mm must not be used. The depth of the tip of the grooving tool must be 7.9 to 8.1 mm. The width of the tip of grooving tools is conveniently checked using a pocket- sized measuring magnifier equipped with a millimeter scale. Magnifiers of this type are available for most laboratory supply companies. The depth of the tip of grooving tools can be checked using the depth measuring feature of vernier calipers."
