Warnings & Information
Intended use: for manual work, maintenance, tactical or legitimate outdoor operations; not a weapon.
Pre-use inspection: always check the tool before use, verifying blade, pliers, locking/opening mechanisms; do not use if deformed or malfunctioning.
Opening/closing: proceed carefully, keeping fingers away from closing path; practice in safe conditions before operational use.
Routine maintenance: clean debris with a dry or lightly damp cloth; dry fully to prevent corrosion; lightly lubricate pivot points and moving parts as per manual instructions.
Consumable replacement: replace blades or wire cutters when excessively worn; use only original or equivalent-quality parts.
Correct tool use: use each function for its intended purpose (e.g., do not use blade as pry bar, avoid forcing saw on overly hard materials); prevent excessive loads.
Sheath and clip: check integrity before use; do not carry if sheath or clip are compromised to avoid accidental drops.
Environmental conditions: avoid prolonged exposure to high humidity or saltwater without immediate cleaning; protect from extreme temperatures that could alter material properties.
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.
Do not tamper: modifying, drilling, engraving or altering structure or mechanisms is prohibited; tampering compromises safety, functionality and regulatory compliance.
Disposal: if irreparably damaged, separate metal and plastic parts and dispose according to local regulations; protect sharp parts with a rigid wrap during disposal.
Regulatory compliance: product meets general safety requirements under GPSR and Italian consumer product regulations; user must employ it in compliance with local laws and internal protocols if used professionally or militarily.
Training & familiarization: users of complex tactical tools should practice identifying each function, opening/closing in safe environments and learn correct techniques to minimize injury risk under operational stress.
Legal responsibility: professional or tactical use must follow organizational protocols; user is responsible for any required permissions or procedures in police or military contexts.
