Setup, Compatibility & Care
These wire cutters require no setup beyond unboxing. They are compatible with a wide range of fine wires typically found in electronic components and fine mechanical assemblies. To ensure longevity and optimal performance:
- Cleaning: Wipe the cutting edges and handles clean with a soft, dry cloth after each use. For stubborn residue, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying.
- Lubrication: Periodically apply a drop of light machine oil to the joint to maintain smooth operation. Ensure excess oil is wiped away.
- Storage: Store in a dry environment. Avoid contact with corrosive materials. Do not use for cutting materials other than those specified (fine wires).
- Avoid Overload: Do not attempt to cut wires thicker than recommended or materials like hard steel, as this can damage the cutting edges.
