Cleaning Shear
Use a good solvent to clean the jaw
assembly of the shear. Avoid getting sol-
vent on the plastic body of the shear as it
may damage the plastic. Always be sure
that the shear is dry before using it again.
Do not allow dust, chips, sand, etc. into the
air vent holes. This could lead to motor fail-
ure and premature bushing failure.
Never use use gasoline or other flam-
mable liquids to clean this tool.
Vapors in the tool may ignite, causing
the tool to explode. Ignoring this
warning may lead to serious personal
injury or even death!
Oiling Shear
Periodically oil your new Grizzly shear to
help maintain its useful life. Place one drop
of light machine oil in the shear jaws (as
shown in
Figure 5
) before every use. Wipe
off any excess oil to avoid dust build-up.

MAINTENANCE
Changing Brushes
Over time, the motor brushes will become
worn and loaded with carbon deposits.
This will dramatically lower the perfor-
mance of the electrical motor.
An extra pair of brushes has been includ-
ed. To change the brushes, unscrew the
small caps on the sides of the shear body
as shown in
Figure 6
.
Slide the old brushes out of the slots and
replace with the fresh set as shown in
Figure 7
. Screw the caps back into the
shear body and the shear is ready for use.
