When to Replace

• Replace this tool if the jaws become bent, worn, or are unable to effectively grip connector tabs.
• Replace if the spring-return mechanism fails or the pivot joint becomes excessively loose.
• Inspect for and replace if stress fractures or cracks appear in the handles or jaws.

Installation Tips

• Ensure plier tips are correctly aligned with the connector's locking tab before applying pressure.
• Squeeze the handles to depress the tab, then gently pull the connector housings apart.
• Do not use these pliers to pry or cut; misuse can damage the connector, wiring, or the tool itself.
• Select the appropriate plier (straight or 60-degree) based on the accessibility of the connector.
