Using these Klein D238-8 diagonal cutting pliers is straightforward. Just grip the plastic-dipped red handles firmly and position the short jaws around the non-ferrous wire or Cherry Burrel rivet you want to cut. The angled head helps you reach into tight spaces easily. When cutting, the high-leverage design gives you extra power. Remember, these pliers are only for non-ferrous wire. Don't use them on other materials as it could damage the cutting knives. For maintenance, keep them clean and dry. You can wipe them with a clean cloth after each use. If they get a bit rusty, you can use a light oil to protect the steel. Avoid dropping them as it might affect the hot-riveted joint and cause handle wobble.
