How to use

Hold the pliers by the insulated handles with a firm but controlled grip. Use the serrated jaws to grasp, hold or bend components, positioning the workpiece as close to the pivot as practical for maximum leverage. For cutting, place the wire or pin between the cutting edges and squeeze the handles evenly until the material is severed. Avoid prying or using the cutting edge on hardened steel to prevent damage.

Usage recommendations

Use eye protection when cutting wire. Keep the tool clean and dry, and periodically inspect the cutting edges and pivot area for wear. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion and do not use the pliers as a hammer or for heavy-duty applications beyond their intended medium-duty use.
