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 8A or 8B for lubrication points. 

4.

 

Store the tool in a clean and dry area when not in use. 

 

Miscrimps or Jams for Crimp Hand Tools Only 

(See Figure 11) 

 
Should this tool ever become stuck or jammed in a partially closed position, 

Do Not

 force the handles open or 

closed.

  The tool will open easily by rotating the 

small slotted screw marked with an arrow.  See 

Figure 11.
