MAINTENANCE

Clean the sealing section regularly with compressed air to remove any dust and particles.
Lubricate the die (position 18), punch (position 36) and punch ZL (position 31) daily with a thin
grade of oil.
This will reduce friction and extend the life of the tool as well as the parts. 
Spray the entire tool daily with a rust preventative, this will prevent any rust formation.

TO ADJUST SEALING DEPTH
Loosen nut (position 42), adjust hexagon socket set screw (position 59) with a hexagon key,
turn counter clockwise to increase sealing depth, or turn clockwise to decrease sealing depth,
