tures skin. If injured, seek medical
attention immediately to remove oil.
Failure to observe this warning could
result in serious injury, gangrene, or
death.
Do not use solvents or flammable
liquids to clean the tool body.
Solvents or flammable liquids could
ignite and cause serious injury or
property damage.
Pinch points:
• Remove battery before changing
dies, adapters, or jaws.
• Keep hands away from the crimp-
ing tool head when crimping.
Failure to observe these warnings
could result in severe injury or death.
Relief valve adjustments must be done by an
