JAW GAP ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Bolt cutter jaws are set at the factory. However, it is a good practice to "fine tune"
them prior to each use.
1.
The two screws on the side of one of the handles perform the following:
•
Hex head screw located on the jaws end of the adjustment link sets the jaws
gap at their tip end.
•
Hex screw with washer at the handle end of the adjustment link sets the
jaws gap at the joint end.
Note 1: Before each adjustment, open the jaws slightly. When closing the jaws,
make sure that the jaw heels do not press against one another.
2.
Correctly set jaws will have a uniform gap along the length of their edges. To
verify the gap, place a sheet of paper between the jaws and fully close them.
They should hold the paper in place.
Note 2: Do not turn the screws more than 1/6th of a turn (one flat of the hex) at a
time.
1.
Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles during use.
2.
Never use on live electrical circuits.
3.
Keep fingers clear of sharp blades.
4.
Keep out of children's reach.
