Troubleshooting

Jaws do not align perfectly

Ensure no debris is trapped between the jaws. If the issue persists, the pliers may have been overstressed; inspect for bending and consider replacement if damaged.

Reduced grip strength

Clean the jaw surfaces. If the serrations are worn down from extensive use, the pliers may need replacement for optimal performance.

Rust spots appear on jaws

This can occur if stored in a humid environment. Gently clean the rust with a fine-grade steel wool and a light oil, then ensure proper dry storage.
