Maint nanc
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 a 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 a 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.
