Warnings & Information (English)
Minimum age: no specific legal restriction for multi-tools, but recommended for informed and responsible users (18+).
Intended use: for manual tasks, maintenance, tactical, advanced airsoft or outdoor survival activities; not to be used improperly as a weapon or for illegal operations.
Pre-use inspection: before each use, check that knife, pliers, cutters, hammer, firestarter, and locking/opening mechanisms are intact and operate without dangerous play; do not use if deformation, cracks, or malfunctions are detected.
Opening/closing: learn and practice external opening methods for knife and saw in a safe environment; keep fingers clear of closing paths to avoid pinch injuries.
Routine maintenance: clean debris with a dry or slightly damp cloth; dry fully to prevent corrosion; lightly lubricate pivots per the user guide.
Consumable replacement: promptly replace worn cutters, blades, or bits; use only original or equivalent-quality parts to ensure safety and performance.
Correct tool use: use each function as intended (e.g., do not use knife or saw as excessive pry bars, avoid excessive hammer force beyond light percussion tasks, use firestarter in safe areas with care to prevent unintended fires, use whistle only in genuine emergency); avoid mechanical overloads that could damage internal components.
Sheath and transport: carry the multi-tool in the provided sheath or suitable case to prevent accidental openings; verify sheath and retention system condition before transport.
Environmental conditions: after use in humid or contaminant-prone environments (e.g., saltwater), clean and dry promptly; protect from extreme temperatures that could affect materials or firestarter performance.
Firestarter use: operate in safe conditions, away from uncontrolled flammable materials; practice ignition techniques in controlled settings before real missions.
Emergency whistle: use only in genuine rescue scenarios; avoid unnecessary use in enclosed spaces to prevent panic or confusion.
Do not tamper: modifying, drilling, engraving, or altering structure, mechanisms, or firestarter is prohibited; tampering compromises safety, functionality, and compliance with GPSR and applicable regulations.
Disposal: if irreparably damaged, separate metal and plastic parts and dispose according to local regulations; protect sharp parts by wrapping securely during disposal.
Training & familiarization: users of complex survival tools should practice identifying each function, opening/closing safely, and learn correct techniques to minimize injury risk under operational stress.
Regulatory compliance: product meets general safety requirements under GPSR and applicable regulations; user must employ it in compliance with local laws and any internal protocols if used professionally or tactically.
Legal responsibility: use in professional, tactical, or security contexts must follow organizational protocols and authorizations; user is responsible for any required permissions or procedures when employed by law enforcement, military, or authorized entities.
Transport and storage: store the multi-tool in its sheath or dedicated case; do not leave in pockets where it may open accidentally; after use, clean and store dry in a protected place.
Responsible use: restrict the multi-tool to legitimate tasks; avoid improper or illegal use.
