Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your AVESON punch down tool, maintain the sharpness of the cutting blades by avoiding thick or non-compliant wire gauges. The tool is pre-configured to work straight out of the package—simply unfold the desired blade, ensure the cutting edge is oriented toward the excess wire side, and apply consistent vertical pressure. For care, keep the tool free of wire clippings and dust to prevent blade jamming. Occasionally check the pivot points for the fold-out blades to ensure they remain secure but movable. Store in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of the metal components.
