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 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. Use a light oil such as 30 weight automotive oil used at the
oil points shown in Figure 4, every 5,000 crimps or monthly will significantly enhance the tool life and ensure
a stable calibration.
4. When tool is not in use store the tool in a clean, dry area.
