How to use

Select the Knipex 86 01 300 plier when the job requires a tool able to grip larger nuts or components. Position the jaws around the fastener ensuring full contact, then apply steady force while maintaining correct wrist alignment. Use controlled pressure to avoid slipping; the plastic handle improves grip but should be held firmly. After use, clean any debris from the jaws and store the plier in a dry place to preserve its condition.

Recommendations

For best results, inspect the jaws for wear before tasks involving high torque and avoid forcing the tool beyond its intended maximum nut size. Keep the plier clean and dry and periodically check for secure handle attachment to ensure safe, consistent performance.
