Troubleshooting

Tool not breaking chain pin effectively

Ensure the correct size pin is being used for the chain. Verify the chain is properly seated and aligned in the tool holders. Apply steady, even pressure.

Difficulty riveting new chain link

Make sure the connecting link plates are correctly aligned using the plate holder. Ensure the correct anvil is used to form the rivet head. Apply pressure gradually.

Pins bending or breaking

This may indicate the tool is being used beyond its light to medium-duty rating or with an incompatible chain size. Inspect for obstructions. Consider using a heavier-duty tool for tougher applications. Replace bent or broken pins immediately.

Parts are lost from the case

Purchase specific spare pins and anvils from authorized Laser Tools suppliers. Keep the case organized and store it in a secure location.
