8. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
8.1. Maintenance
Ensure that the tool and dies are clean by wiping
them with a clean, soft cloth. Remove any debris with
a clean, soft brush. Do not use objects that could
damage the tool. When not in use, keep handles
closed to prevent objects from becoming lodged in
the crimping dies, and store in a clean, dry area.
8.2. Visual Inspection
The crimping dies should be inspected on a regular
basis to ensure that they have not become worn or
damaged. Inspect the crimping sections for flattened,
chipped, worn, or broken areas. If damage or
abnormal wear is evident, the tool must be replaced.
See Section 9, REPLACEMENT.
