7 – EXAMINATION, MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
On return from each job and before allocation against subsequent work the completeness of the
Christie WCLW18TE kit must be established and items examined to ensure that they are
serviceable.
Any missing or damaged items are to be replaced as soon as possible and prior to the tool being
used again.
Store the tool in a cool dry place and ensure all machined surfaces are greased
Grease all moving parts each and every time the tool is used:
Greasing the wedge:
Remove the grease nipple from the handle of the tool
Screw the grease nipple into the jaw, attach the grease gun
and squeeze grease into the wedge
Screw the grease nipple into the base of the tool, attach the
grease gun and squeeze grease into the wedge
OR
Connect the hose to the wedge and advance the wedge
forward, smear grease onto the surfaces of the wedge
Greasing the slide pins:
Simply smear some grease into the slots. Also
ensure the slide pins are free from grit.
