Maintenance Tips
-
Clean After Use: Wipe down the rigid shoes with a clean cloth after each use to remove dust, dirt, and debris. This prevents buildup that could affect performance.
-
Inspect for Damage: Regularly inspect the shoes for any signs of cracks, wear, or rust. Replace any damaged parts to ensure the shoes remain in good working condition.
-
Lubricate Moving Parts: If applicable, lubricate any moving components, such as adjustable mechanisms or hinges, to ensure smooth operation. Use a light lubricant and avoid excess to prevent attracting dirt.
-
Check for Proper Alignment: Ensure the shoes are aligned properly when in use to avoid uneven wear or incorrect shaping of the conduit.
-
Store Properly: When not in use, store the shoes in a dry, cool place to avoid rusting from moisture or extreme temperatures.
-
Avoid Overuse: Use the shoes within their specified range of sizes (1/2" - 2") to avoid overloading the tool, which could lead to premature wear.
-
Inspect for Sharp Edges: Check any cutting or bending edges for dullness or damage, and sharpen or replace them as necessary to maintain efficiency.
