with a clean, soft brush, or a clean, soft, lint–free
cloth. Do NOT use any objects that could damage
the dies or tool.
2. Make sure that the proper die retaining screws
are properly secured.
3. When the dies are not in use, mate and store
them in a clean, dry area.
4. Store the tool with the tool handles closed to
prevent objects from becoming lodged within the
jaws.
7.2. Inspection

from the dies by immersing the dies in a suitable
commercial degreaser.
2. Make certain that all die retaining screws and
die components are properly secured.

chipped, worn, or cracked areas. If damage is
evident, the dies must be replaced. Refer to
