The pliers are fully adjustable and can grip oil filters from 45mm up to 89mm in diameter.
They are manufactured from durable chrome vanadium steel for strength and longevity.
Wipe them clean with a dry cloth after use to remove oil. Store in a dry place.
These pliers are specifically designed for removing oil filters and may not be suitable or safe for other applications.
The cushioned handles are integrated for comfort and grip and are not designed to be individually replaceable.
MPN stands for Manufacturer Part Number, which is AU254 in this case.
Ensure the jaws are fully engaged and tightened against the filter. Clean any excessive oil from the filter surface for better grip. For filters between 45mm-89mm, ensure the jaws are set correctly.
Check the adjustment mechanism for debris or build-up. Wipe clean and test the adjustment again. If resistance persists, a small amount of lubricant may be applied to the sliding track.
Ensure the cushioned handles are clean and dry. If the cushioning feels compressed, check for damage. Proper grip technique can also improve comfort.
Setup: No assembly is required. Simply open the jaws and position them around the oil filter. Adjust the jaw width by sliding the lower jaw until it securely grips the filter body.
Compatibility: These pliers are designed to fit oil filters with diameters ranging from 45mm to 89mm. Always confirm your oil filter's dimensions before use to ensure compatibility.
Care: After each use, wipe the pliers clean with a dry cloth to remove any oil residue. For long-term storage, apply a light coat of oil to the jaw mechanism to prevent rust. Store in a dry environment. Avoid exposing the cushioned handles to harsh solvents, which can degrade the material.
