Operating Instructions

1. Wire Stripping

To strip insulation from a wire:

  1. Identify the correct stripping hole for your wire gauge (1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, or 4.0mm²).
  2. Insert the wire into the corresponding stripping hole.
  3. Close the handles firmly to cut the insulation, then pull to remove it.

2. Wire Cutting

To cut a wire:

  1. Place the wire into the cutting blade area.
  2. Squeeze the handles together firmly to cut the wire. The cutting capacity is up to 25mm².

3. Wire Pulling/Bending

Use the serrated jaws at the tip of the tool to grip and pull wires, or to bend them as needed.

4. Wire Winding

For winding multiple strands of wire together:

  1. Insert the ends of the wires into the brass winding holes labeled "winding".
  2. Rotate the tool or wires to twist them together securely.

5. Wire Splitting

To split sheathed cables (e.g., 2*1.5mm²):

  1. Insert the sheathed cable into the splitting mechanism labeled "split".
  2. Apply gentle pressure and pull the cable through to separate the inner conductors.

7. Electricity Measurement Function

This tool includes a non-contact voltage tester for AC/DC circuits ranging from 12V to 250V.

  1. To test for voltage, place the electricity measuring area (located on the handle) near the wire or circuit you wish to test.
  2. A green light indicates no power or a null wire.
  3. A red light and an audible alert indicate the presence of live voltage.

Important: This function is for preliminary indication only. Always use a certified voltage tester to confirm circuits are de-energized before beginning work. Do not rely solely on this feature for safety.

Maintenance

  • Keep the tool clean and dry. Wipe off any dirt or debris after each use.
  • Periodically apply a light oil to the pivot points to ensure smooth operation.
  • Store the tool in a safe, dry place away from moisture and corrosive materials.
  • Inspect the blades and jaws regularly for wear or damage. Replace the tool if significant damage is observed.

Troubleshooting

ProblemSolution
Difficulty stripping wires.Ensure the correct stripping hole size is selected for the wire gauge. Blades may be dull; consider replacement if heavily worn.
Electricity measurement function not working or unreliable.Ensure proper contact with the wire/circuit. This function is an indicator; always use a dedicated voltage tester for confirmation.
Handles are stiff.Apply a small amount of lubricant to the pivot points.
