Maintenance
It is recommended that each operator of the tool
be made aware of, and responsible for, the
following maintenance steps:
1.
Remove dust, moisture and other contaminants with a clean brush, or soft, lint-free cloth.
2.
Do not use any abrasive materials that could damage the tool.
3.
Make certain all pins; pivot points and bearing surfaces in the tool head are protected with a thin coat of high
quality machine oil. Do not oil excessively. This tool was engineered for durability, but like any fine piece of
equipment, it needs cleaning and lubrication for a maximum service life of trouble-free crimping. The use of
light oil, such as 30 weight automotive oil, every 5,000 crimps or monthly, will significantly enhance the tool life
and ensure a stable calibration. See Figure 6A or 6B for lubrication points.
4.
Store the tool in a clean and dry area when not in use.
