Usage
:Maintenance Tips : To ensure your pliers last a long time and function correctly, follow these simple maintenance steps :
- Clean After Use : Always wipe the pliers clean of any dirt, debris, grease, or moisture after you finish using them. A dry cloth is usually sufficient.
- Dry Thoroughly : Never store the pliers wet. If they get exposed to moisture or you need to wash them with soap and water, dry them completely to prevent rust.
- Lubricate the Joint : Regularly apply a single drop of machine oil or a multi-purpose oil (like 3-in-1 or WD-40) directly into the pivot joint. Open and close the pliers several times to work the oil in. This keeps the action smooth and prevents rust.
- Store Properly : Store your pliers in a dry, cool place, such as a toolbox or on a tool rack. Avoid leaving them in damp or humid environments.
- Inspect Regularly : When cleaning, take a moment to inspect the cutting edges for any nicks or damage and check that the handles are not cracked or loose.
