9.1.

 

Maintenance 

 

Remove dust, moisture, and other contaminants with a clean, soft brush or soft, lint-free cloth. 

Do not

 

use objects that could damage the dies or tool. 

 

When the tool is not in use, keep the handles closed to prevent objects from becoming lodged in the 
dies. 

 

Remove all lubrication and accumulated film by immersing the dies in a suitable commercial degreaser. 

 

Store the tool in a clean, dry area. 

9.2.

 

Visual inspection 

 

Inspect the tool and dies on a regular basis to ensure that they are not worn or damaged. 

 

Make sure that the die retaining screws are properly secured. 

 

Inspect the crimping chambers of the die assembly for flattened, chipped, worn, or broken areas. 

 

If damage or abnormal wear is evident, replace the tool or dies. Refer to section 10, REPLACEMENT 
AND REPAIR.
