3. Remove the jaws from the tool.

MAINTENANCE
To reduce the risk of injury, always
WARNING
unplug the charger and remove the
battery pack from the charger or tool before

the tool, battery pack or charger. Contact
Southwire Tools & Assembled Products for ALL
repairs.
Maintaining Tool
Keep your tool, battery pack and charger in good
repair by adopting a regular maintenance program.
Inspect your tool for issues such as undue noise,
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, or any other condition that may affect the tool
operation. Return the tool, battery pack, and charger
to Southwire Tools & Assembled Products for repair.
After six months to one year, depending on use, re-
turn the tool, battery pack and charger to Southwire
Tools & Assembled Products for inspection.
If the tool does not start or operate at full power
with a fully charged battery pack, clean the contacts
on the battery pack. If the tool still does not work
properly, return the tool, charger and battery pack, to
Southwire Tools & Assembled Products for repairs.
Jaws and Blades
Inspect jaws for cracks or damage. Do not use dam-
aged jaws. Replace the blades when they become
dull, rounded, chipped, or damaged.

jury and damage, never immerse
your tool, battery pack or charger in liquid or
allow a liquid to flow inside them.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep handles
clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild

include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint
thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and
household detergents containing ammonia. Never
use flammable or combustible solvents around tools.
