6. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
Inspect the tool and die set immediately upon arrival at
your facility and at regularly-scheduled intervals
thereafter to ensure that they have not been damaged.
When not in use, store tool with handles closed in a
clean, dry area.
6.1. Daily Maintenance
Foreign particles should be cleaned from the tool
using a soft, clean, lint-free cloth or brush. Make sure
all pins, rings and other retaining hardware is in place,
and that the die set is undamaged. Lightly lubricate all
pins, pivot points, and bearing surfaces using a good
grade SAE 20 motor oil. DO NOT lubricate
excessively.
6.2. Periodic Inspection
It is recommended that the following inspections be
conducted at least once a month by quality control
personnel. More frequent inspections should be
conducted if your work environment, company
standards, or amount of tool use indicates the need.
A. Visual Inspection
Remove die set from the tool; then, remove all
lubrication and accumulated film and debris by
immersing the dies and tool head in a mild commercial
degreaser.

2. Position new blades onto tool with beveled edges
facing inward.
3. Install and tighten screws. Adjust flat oval cable
stripper according to Paragraph 5.2.
1. Check for missing or defective pins, rings, or
other retaining hardware. Replace parts as
necessary.
2. Closely inspect dies for damage, giving special
attention to bearing surfaces and surfaces that
contact the product. Worn, cracked, pitted, or
chipped indenter or nest surfaces, or other obvious
wear or damage to the die set or tool head requires
removal of the affected part from service.

!
DO NOT cycle the tool without a die in place;
otherwise, damage to the stripping blades may
occur.
Failure to perform daily maintenance and periodic
inspection can cause defective modular plug
terminations, leading to discontinuities on individual
wire circuits.
DO NOT lubricate surfaces of the die set that
contact the product. These areas must be kept
clean to ensure a usable modular plug assembly.
