CLEANING:

1. Use the Klein Grip Cleaning Wire Brush (Cat. No. 25450)

or emery cloth to clean the surfaces of grip jaws.

2. Spray cleaner-degreaser on the grip jaws, all joints and

all moving parts.

3. Use the Klein Grip Cleaning Wire Brush to remove dirt and debris from jaws.

4. Wipe grips dry with soft cloth.

Repeat all steps until grip is completely clean.

NOTE

: Aluminum strand conductors may

have a die-grease coating which can deposit on grip jaws. New aluminum conductors

should be wiped clean before grip application. Grip jaws should be wiped clean of grease

before use.

LUBRICATING:

Lubricate all joints and moving parts.

DO NOT LUBRICATE GRIPPING SURFACES OF JAWS.

INSPECTION:

Carefully inspect jaw condition, proper aligment of jaws and all parts, and possible

distortion caused by exceeding safe-load specifications. Grips should operate smoothly.

Spring-loaded grips should lock open with loop handle in “Down” position and should

close automatically with loop handle “Up.” The Klein parallel jaw grip may be tested by

opening and closing the jaws by hand, exercising proper caution. All parts and rivets

should be checked for distortion.

NEVER ATTEMPT TO REPAIR OR MODIFY ANY GRIP.

Grips that are bent, misaligned, or

otherwise distorted should be discarded and replaced. If there is ever any question about

the safe condition of any grip, please contact Klein Tools directly at 1-844-395-3235 or

1-800-KLEIN76.
