Installation Notes

Aviation snips are a hand tool requiring no power source; however, always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling sheet metal edges, as freshly cut metal presents significant laceration risk. Inspect blade alignment and pivot tension before use and adjust the pivot screw if the blades bind or deflect during cutting. Follow applicable OSHA hand tool safety guidelines and any relevant trade or site safety protocols.
