Pre-Operation Inspection
• Before use, inspect the tool and correct any
problems before using to reduce the risk of
injury and prevent product damage.
• Do not use hands to check for oil leaks. Oil under
pressure easily punctures skin. If injured, seek
medical attention immediately.
• If during inspection, damage to tool is observed
or suspected, do not use the tool. Large forces
are generated during use that can break or throw
parts and cause injury.
Remove battery before inspecting the tool head. Severe
injury can result from unexpected activation of the tool.
1. Clean any oil, grease or dirt from the tool body and
head, including handles and controls. A clean tool
aids inspection.
2. Inspect for wear and damage, such as cracks,
gouges, or chips in tool housing and head. Do
not use if any parts are worn, corroded, rusted, or
cracked.
3. Inspect the tool head for any cracks, gouges, or
chips or significant wear. Replace cutting heads with
dull or chipped blades before operating for a clean
cut. Do not sharpen blades, send in for service.
Replace crimping heads with any of the listed
imperfections to reduce the risk of the jaws breaking
and throwing parts.
4. Inspect for leaking hydraulic oil. Do not use if leak is
detected, send in for service.
5. Test the rotation of the head assembly, the head
should be free to rotate almost one full turn (about
330˚). If head rotates past a full turn, send in for
service. A loose head increases the risk of the head
separating from the body.
6. Inspect the hot stick adapter for damage and the
presence of the wing nut. Replace if adapter is
damaged or wing nut is missing.
7. Check for proper assembly and completeness, do
not use if there are missing or misaligned parts.
8. Check for the presence and condition of decals.
9. Inspect and maintain any other equipment being
used per its' instructions and is functioning properly.
If any issues are found, do not use this tool until
corrected.
