How to use

Select the correct orientation of the plier tips for external or internal circlips and position the jaws into the circlip eyelets. Apply even pressure on the handles to expand or compress the circlip until it can be removed or positioned on the shaft or bore. Use controlled movements and ensure the circlip is fully seated in its groove after installation. Store the pliers in a dry place to maintain tip alignment and reliable operation.

Recommendations

Use appropriate eye protection and avoid exerting excessive force beyond the intended circlip size. Inspect the tips for wear before use and replace the tool if the tips are damaged or deformed to prevent slippage or component damage.
