Troubleshooting
Jaws do not grip firmly
Ensure the jaws are clean and free of debris. Check that the pivot is lubricated. For severely worn jaws, replacement may be necessary.
Wire cutter is not cutting effectively
Ensure the wire is positioned correctly in the cutter section of the jaws. Clean any debris from the cutting edge. For hardened or thick wires, use a dedicated wire cutter.
Pliers feel stiff or difficult to open/close
Apply a small amount of light machine oil to the pivot joint and work the handles back and forth to distribute the lubricant. Clean any accumulated dirt from the pivot area.
Handles are sticky or uncomfortable
Wipe the soft grips with a damp cloth and dry them thoroughly. Ensure no adhesives or foreign substances are on the grips.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your combination pliers:
- Cleaning: After use, wipe the pliers clean with a dry cloth to remove dirt, grease, and debris. For stubborn grime, use a cloth lightly dampened with water or a mild degreaser, ensuring the tool is dried thoroughly afterwards.
