3. Lift and pull the locator away from the
hand tool. The top locator hooks should
slip out of the top slots easily. See Figure

4. To reinstall the new locator, make sure the
hand tool is in the open position.
5. Press the red insert down as far as it will
go as shown in Figure 7B.
6. Holding onto the lower part of the locator
with your thumb and index finger, insert
the locator’s top hooks (2) into the hand
tool’s top slots.
7. Rotate the locator down, and press the
lower tabs into the two bottom slots of the
hand tool. To secure the locator into place,
the lower tabs must snap into place on the
hand tool frame.
Right or Left Hand Operation
This hand tool has an added feature that can be
converted from a right-handed application to a
left-handed application. It is necessary to reverse
the tooling if using the left-handed application
along with the locator. Follow the steps below:
1. The locator must be removed before
reversing the tooling.
2. Remove the M3 BHCS, which is holding
the upper tooling.
3. Flip the upper tooling to the opposite side,
and replace the M3 BHCS. Make sure the
small markings on the front and back of
the hand tool frame match up and are on
the outside of the hand tool frame. See
Figures 8 and 9.
4. Do the same thing with the lower tooling,
and tighten the M3 screws. Be sure the
small markings line up.
5. Reinstall the locator by following the
instructions in the locator replacement
section.
