Operating Instructions

The Gen-R Lite Multitool integrates 15 functions. Always ensure tools are fully deployed and locked before use to prevent injury.

1. VG10 Blade

The multitool features a sharp VG10 stainless steel blade with HRC 60 hardness for superior edge retention. To deploy, carefully open the blade using the thumb hole until it locks into place. To fold, press the liner lock and carefully close the blade.

The large spring-action scissors are designed for efficient cutting. To use, open the scissors until they are locked in the handle with the liner lock (you will hear a 'click') to activate the spring action. Do not press the area indicated in the diagram below during operation to maintain spring tension.

Maintenance

  • Cleaning: After each use, especially in wet or dirty conditions, clean the multitool with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
  • Lubrication: Periodically apply a small amount of light oil to the pivot points of the tools to ensure smooth operation.
  • Blade Sharpening: The VG10 blade will retain its edge well, but can be sharpened using standard knife sharpening techniques when needed.
  • Storage: Store the multitool in its leather sheath in a dry environment to prevent corrosion.

Troubleshooting

  • Stiff Tools: If tools become stiff, apply a small amount of lubricant to the pivot points and work the tools back and forth.
  • Blade/Tool Not Locking: Ensure no debris is obstructing the locking mechanism. Clean the area and try again. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
  • Rust Spots: Clean immediately with a rust remover and apply a protective oil. Stainless steel is stain-resistant, not stain-proof.
