Maintenance Tips

• Inspect Before Each Use: Check mesh, eye, and weave for distortion, wear or broken wires — ensure the grip matches cable size and rated load.

• Clean Mesh & Eye: Remove dirt, grease, and debris from wire mesh with a stiff brush; wipe clean to maintain secure cable engagement.

• Lubricate Moving Parts: Apply light lubricant to pivot/joints (avoid gripping mesh) to keep flexibility and reduce corrosion.

• Dry After Exposure: If used in damp or muddy conditions, dry the grip thoroughly before storage to prevent rust and extend life.

• Store Properly: Hang or place in a clean, dry tool area to avoid mesh damage and preserve shape for peak performance.
