The lever class of a hammer depends upon its use. If the hammer is used as a claw to remove a nail, it is a first class lever. When the hammer is used to strike a nail, it is a third class lever. There are three classes of levers. The difference between the classes lies in the position of the load, the effort and the fulcrum.
