MAINTENANCE & INSPECTION
3.5
1. Very little maintenance is required to ensure that the tool is kept in good working condition.
2. To ensure smooth operation and prevent rust, store the tool in a cool dry area. Ensure that moving parts are lubricated
regularly.
3. When the plastic housing becomes dirty, clean it with a soft soaped cloth.
4. Dust, sand, and dirt are a danger for any hydraulic device. After each use, the tool should be wiped with a clean cloth taking care
to remove any residue, especially close to the movable parts. Keep the head and indentor clean and free of debris. Solvents can
be used to clean the head but should not be used on the plastic body. Use soap and water to clean the plastic body.

IMPORTANT OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
4.1
PRECAUTIONS FOR COMPRESSION TOOL
1. Select the appropriate connector for the conductor being terminated. Incorrect combinations result in inferior connections
of the conductors.
2. Never operate the tool to full extension without a mated connector and conductor inserted in the tool head.
3. Always point the tool away from other people.
4. If the tool is stored for an extended period at a temperature of less than 14º F (-10º C), the tool should be allowed to return
to room temperature to ensure smooth operation. Use the tool only after it has been at room temperature for 1 hour.
5. Do not drop the tool. Dropping the tool may damage the hydraulic circuit and cause malfunctions.

1. Do not short circuit the contacts or expose the battery to water, oil or solvents.
2. Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the battery or dispose of in a fire.
3. Do not drop or otherwise abuse the battery.
4. Do not leave the battery in locations where it will be exposed to a temperature greater than 122° F (50° C) for an extended
period.
5. The battery has a limited life. When the capacity becomes about 1/2 that of the original capacity, the battery should be
replaced.
6. If the battery is stored without being charged, natural drainage will cause the power to be reduced. The battery should be
charged every 3 months if not in use regularly.
