Using your Klein D213 - 9NE - CR lineman's pliers is easy. For cutting, simply place the wire between the cutting blades and squeeze the handles firmly. The 'Handform' handles give you a great grip and full cutting power. When you're crimping non - insulated connectors, lugs, or terminals, position them in front of the crimping die behind the hinge and apply pressure. The high - leverage design makes this task a breeze.
Here are some important things to keep in mind. These pliers aren't insulated, so don't use them on live electrical wires. Also, they're not tether - capable, so make sure to keep track of them to avoid losing them.
To keep your pliers in good shape, after each use, wipe them down with a clean, dry cloth. If they get dirty, you can use a mild soap and water solution, but make sure to dry them thoroughly. Don't expose the pliers to extreme heat or cold as this could affect their performance. And remember, the induction - hardened cutting knives are durable, but try not to use them on extremely hard materials to prevent damage.
