Using your DeWalt DWHT14681 aviation snips is straightforward. First, select the material you want to cut, like aluminum or sheet metal. Make sure the material is within the 18 to 22-Gauge range. Hold the snips firmly by the slip-resistant, bi - material cushion grip. Place the serrated cutting edge on the part of the material you want to cut. Squeeze the handles gently. The reduced handle span will help you use less effort. For longer cuts, take advantage of the extended cutting blade. When not in use, keep the snips in a dry place to prevent rust. Wipe them clean after each use, especially if you've cut materials that might leave residue. Avoid using the snips on materials outside of the recommended gauge range as this could damage the blades. If the blades seem dull over time, you can consider having them sharpened by a professional.
