SAFETY PRACTICES 

 

ALWAYS wear safety glasses when using this tool. 

 

DO NOT place fingers near cutting blade during tool actuation. 
Fingers may be pinched or injured by cutter blade. 

 

DO NOT use tool on live electrical sources. 

 

TO REPLACE ANVIL 

Remove two screws holding Anvil onto the tool.  A 3/32” Allen Wrench will be required.  The screws may be very 
tight as they have been installed with Loctite

®

.  Once the screws are removed, slide the Anvil towards the front of 

the tool and downward away from the tool.  Set aside old Anvil. 

**

 Place new Anvil onto bottom of the tool.  The 

Anvil must straddle the two plates and have the slots toward the rear.  When the Anvil is slid backwards, the slots 
must engage the pins.  If done correctly, the hole on each side of the Anvil will align with a tapped mounting hole 
below.  Replace the screws applying a drop of Loctite

®

 to each screw.  See pictures below. 

** IF SETSHEAR FINGER IS TO BE REPLACED AS WELL, NOW IS THE TIME TO REPLACE PER 
THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW.

 

 

TO REPLACE SETSHEAR FINGER 

Remove a single screw holding the Setshear Finger up onto the Sliding Detent Assembly.  Use a 1/16” Allen 
Wrench to remove the screw.  The screw may be tight as it has been installed with Loctite

®

.  Once the screw is 

removed, slide the Setshear Finger toward the front of the tool.  This should disengage it from the Sliding Detent 
Assembly.  Pull the Finger down out of the bottom of the tool.  Installation is the reverse of these steps.  When 
replacing the Setshear Finger, the notch on the flat surface of the finger must engage the retaining tab on the 
Sliding Detent Assembly.  See pictures below.  

WHEN COMPLETE, THE LOCATING SET SCREW ON THE FRONT OF THE TOOL WILL NEED TO 
BE ADJUSTED PRIOR TO TOOL USE.
