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 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 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 7A or 7B for lubrication points.
4.
Store the tool in a clean and dry area when not in use.
