Diagonal cutting pliers, also known as diagonal pliers, side cutters, or wire cutters, are hand tools designed for cutting wires, cables, and other materials. They feature sharp, angled cutting edges that form a diagonal line when the jaws are closed. This design allows the pliers to make clean and precise cuts close to the surface, making them particularly useful for trimming wires and removing excess material. Diagonal cutting pliers are commonly used in various applications, such as electrical work, crafting, and general household tasks where cutting, snipping, or trimming is required.

SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):
- Use safety glasses or goggles to protect your eyes from flying debris or sharp objects.
Select the Right Tool for the Job:
- Ensure you are using the appropriate size and type of diagonal cutting pliers for the task at hand.
Inspect the Tool:
- Before use, inspect the pliers for any damage, such as bent or damaged jaws. Do not use damaged tools.
Proper Hand Placement:
- Keep your hands behind the cutting edges to avoid injury. Never place your fingers in the path of the cutting jaws.
Secure Workpiece:
- Secure the material you are cutting in a stable position to prevent it from slipping or moving during the cutting process.
Cut at the Proper Angle:
- Use the pliers at the recommended cutting angle. Cutting at an angle other than the intended direction may result in poor performance and increased risk of accidents.
Use Proper Cutting Technique:
- Use controlled, steady force when cutting. Avoid applying excessive force, as it may lead to loss of control and potential injury.
Cut Materials Within Capacity:
- Do not attempt to cut materials that exceed the specified capacity of the pliers. This can damage the tool and increase the risk of injury.
Store Safely:
- When not in use, store the pliers in a safe and designated location to prevent accidental contact or damage.
Keep a Clean Work Area:
- Maintain a clutter-free work area to reduce the risk of tripping or accidental contact with tools and materials.
Follow Manufacturer's Instructions:
- Adhere to the guidelines and recommendations provided by the tool manufacturer for proper usage and maintenance.
Be Mindful of Others:
- Be aware of your surroundings and the presence of others in the work area to prevent accidental contact or injury to yourself and others.
