2. Switching Between Internal and External Modes:

The pliers feature a quick-change switch mechanism to convert between internal (spreading) and external (compressing) circlip applications.

• Locate the small lever or switch near the pivot point of the pliers.
• Move the lever to the "INT" position for internal circlips (pliers open when handles are squeezed).
• Move the lever to the "EXT" position for external circlips (pliers close when handles are squeezed).

Упатства за работа

1. For Internal Circlips:

1. Ensure the pliers are set to the "INT" mode.
2. Insert the tips into the holes of the internal circlip.
3. Gently squeeze the handles to spread the circlip, allowing it to be removed or installed into its groove.
4. Release the handles slowly once the circlip is in position.

2. For External Circlips:

1. Ensure the pliers are set to the "EXT" mode.
2. Insert the tips into the holes of the external circlip.
3. Gently squeeze the handles to compress the circlip, allowing it to be removed or installed from its shaft.
4. Release the handles slowly once the circlip is in position.

Одржување

• Подмачкување: Periodically apply a light oil to the pivot points and the quick-change mechanism to ensure smooth operation.
• Инспекција на врв: Regularly inspect the tips for wear, bending, or damage. Replace worn or damaged tips immediately to prevent injury or damage to circlips.
• Складирање: Store the pliers in a dry, clean environment. Utilize the integrated handle storage for spare tips and the hex key to keep them organized and prevent loss.

Решавање проблеми

• Pliers not opening/closing smoothly:

  Check for debris in the pivot mechanism. Apply lubricant to the pivot points. Ensure the quick-change switch is fully engaged in either "INT" or "EXT" position.
• Tips slipping from circlip:

  Verify that the correct tip size is being used for the circlip. Ensure tips are securely tightened with the grub screw. Inspect tips for wear or damage and replace if necessary.

• Difficulty changing internal/external mode:

  Ensure the pliers are fully open or closed when attempting to switch modes. Apply a small amount of lubricant to the switch mechanism if it feels stiff.
