Setup

Your WORKPRO Multi-Tool comes pre-assembled and ready for use. No complex setup is required. Simply unfold the desired tool from its housing.

Unfolding Tools:

The multi-tool is designed for easy access to individual components. Tools can be opened in two directions for convenience and efficiency.

Figure 3: Illustration of the multi-tool's dual-direction opening mechanism. Large tools can be deployed without unfolding the pliers, while small tools open outwards to prevent stacking.

• Large Tools: Tools like the knife and saw can be folded out or in without needing to open the main pliers.
• Small Tools: Smaller tools such as screwdrivers and can openers open in the opposite direction, preventing them from stacking together and allowing for easier access.

Operating Instructions

To use any tool, carefully unfold it until it clicks into place. Always ensure the tool is fully extended and locked before applying force.

Safety Lock Mechanisms:

Your WORKPRO Multi-Tool is equipped with safety locks to prevent accidental closure during use.

Figure 4: The Liner Safety Lock mechanism, which secures larger tools like the knife and saw when deployed.

• Liner Safety Lock: This lock controls larger tools that open inward, such as the wood/metal file, serrated knife, knife, and saw. It ensures these tools remain open and stable during use. To disengage, push the liner lock to the side and fold the tool back into the handle.

Figure 5: The Back Safety Lock mechanism, which secures smaller tools like the wire stripper, can opener, and screwdrivers.

• Back Safety Lock: This lock controls smaller tools that open outward, including the wire stripper, can opener, small & large slotted screwdrivers, scissors, rope cutter, and Phillips screwdrivers (PH0 & PH3). It prevents these tools from folding back unexpectedly. To disengage, press the lever at the back of the tool and fold the component back into the handle.

General Usage Tips:

• When using pliers, ensure a firm grip on the handles.
• For cutting tasks, apply steady pressure and cut away from your body.
• When using screwdrivers, select the correct size bit to prevent stripping screws.
• Always close tools securely after use to prevent injury and damage.

Lubrication:

• Periodically apply a small amount of light machine oil to the pivot points and moving parts.
