Troubleshooting

Gripper not holding firmly

Ensure the adjusting screw is tightened sufficiently. Check that the jaws are clean and free of debris. For heavily worn jaws, consider professional servicing.

Release lever is stiff

Apply a small amount of lubricant to the pivot points of the release lever and the adjusting screw. Work the lever back and forth to distribute the lubricant.

Corrosion on the surface

Gently clean the affected area with a fine-grit sandpaper or steel wool. Apply a thin coat of oil to prevent future rust. Ensure the tool is stored in a dry place.
