Ensure the wire is correctly seated in the tool's gripping mechanism. Check that the pivoting foot is firmly against the post and not slipping. Verify the wire diameter does not exceed 4mm.

Check for any debris or obstructions around the handle mechanism. If the tool has been stored for a long time, a light application of lubricant to the pivot points may be necessary.
Setup: The tool requires no assembly. To use, position the pivoting foot firmly against a fence post. Place the wire to be tensioned into the appropriate mechanism on the tool. Engage the handle to begin tightening the wire, ensuring the foot remains stable against the post.
Compatibility: This tool is designed to work with fence wires up to 4mm in diameter. It is compatible with most standard wooden fence posts, as the pivoting foot is designed to grip varied post surfaces. It is not intended for use with metal posts or tensioning cables exceeding the specified diameter.
Care: After use, clean the tool by wiping away dirt and debris with a dry cloth. For prolonged storage, a light application of oil on moving parts can prevent rust and ensure smooth operation. Store in a dry place away from the elements.
