HOW TO USE:

• Stripping Wire: To strip a wire, first identify the correct stripping hole on the tool for your wire’s gauge (10-22 AWG). Insert the wire into the corresponding hole until it reaches the desired length. Squeeze the handles together firmly to cut through the insulation, then pull the tool away to remove the stripped piece.
• Cutting Wire: To cut a wire, place it between the induction-hardened cutting blades at the tip of the tool. Squeeze the handles together until the wire is completely severed.
• Crimping Terminals: To crimp an insulated or non-insulated terminal, insert the terminal into the appropriate crimping section on the tool. Place the stripped wire into the terminal. Squeeze the handles firmly until the crimp is complete, securing the wire in place.
• Using the Bolt Cutter: To cut a bolt, insert it into the designated bolt cutting section. Make sure the bolt is securely in the correct hole. Squeeze the handles to cut the bolt, which will leave a clean, threaded end.
• Pliers Function: Use the pliers-style nose at the tip of the tool to grip, pull, and loop wires as needed for your project.
