Troubleshooting
Sleeve is difficult to expand
Ensure adequate Hellerine lubricant is applied to the sleeve and the tool's prongs. Check that the sleeve diameter is within the tool's specified range (1.2mm - 2.0mm).
Tool does not expand evenly
Inspect the three prongs for any damage or debris. Ensure they are clean and aligned properly. If damaged, consider replacing the tool.
Sleeve tears during application
Apply more lubricant to both the sleeve and the tool. Ensure the sleeve is not being forced; allow the tool to expand it naturally. Verify the sleeve material is compatible with the tool's expansion method.
