THE WAYS OF ELIMINATING SIMPLE BREAKDOWN
◆ Jamming problems
The most common reason is insufficient pusher spring tension. This occurs when the tool is forced to function
when ring quantity is not sufficient. This tool is not designed to empty its magazine during operation. Reload
when the pusher makes contact with the tunnel in the housing.
If a jam occurs, pull pusher back to the locked position and pull rings out of jaw mechanism area. Point nose
of tool down while holding onto rings, cycle tool slowly. User may need to shake pliers to assist the ring in
falling out. This should force jammed ring out of jaw mechanism.
◆ Ring does not close completely
1. Check for foreign debris in the jaw area. This is especially true in the area between the housing and rollers.
2. The jaws may be worn from extended use, replacing the jaw(s) is recommended.
3. When the tool is used in corrosive applications, a water dispersing lubricating oil should be applied on a
regular basis to the jaw pins and rollers. Unlubricated and/or corroded jaw pins may cause the tool to
function poorly.
◆ Feeding problems
1. If rings do not feed smoothly down the magazine, check pusher spring for tension. If the magazine is
covered with dirt from field use, clean the magazine and apply a light coating of water dispersing
lubricating oil. If magazine is worn or damaged, replace it.
2. When rings feed properly on the magazine but do not feed into the jaws without spitting out of the
magazine side of the tool, or if the rings sit in the jaw groves on an angle, check jaws to insure freedom of
movement.
3. If jaws do not open completely allowing the next ring to enter jaws, check the jaw open spring for wear or
need of replacement.
4. Never use loose rings in the D-Ring hand Pliers B14.
