5. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
It is recommended that a maintenance and inspection
program be performed periodically to ensure
dependable and uniform terminations. Though
recommendations call for at least one inspection a
month, frequency of inspection depends upon the
following:
1. The care, amount of use, and handling of the
hand tool.
2. The presence of abnormal amounts of dust and
dirt.
3. The degree of operator skill.
4. Your own established standards.
The hand tool is inspected before being shipped;
however, it is recommended that the tool be inspected
immediately upon arrival at your facility to ensure that
the tool has not been damaged during shipment.
5.1. Daily Maintenance
1. The hand tool should be immersed (handles
partially closed) in a reliable commercial degreasing
compound to remove accumulated dirt, grease, and
foreign matter. When degreasing compound is not
available, tool may be wiped clean with a soft, lint-
free cloth. Do NOT use hard or abrasive objects that
could damage the tool.
2. Make certain that the retaining pins are in place
and that they are secured with retaining rings.
3. All pins, pivot points, and bearing surfaces should
be protected with a THIN coat of any good SAE† 20
motor oil. Do NOT oil excessively.
† SAE is a trademark.
