Using the Leatherman Raptor is straightforward. First, decide how you want to carry it. You can use the MOLLE or utility belt holster system, or attach it to your pocket or belt loop with the replaceable pocket clip. If you're worried about dropping it, use the lanyard hole to attach a lanyard.
When an emergency occurs, quickly access the tools you need. The folding medical shears are great for cutting through various materials. The strap cutter can handle straps, and the ring cutter is useful for removing rings. The ruler can help with quick measurements, the oxygen tank wrench is for oxygen tanks, and the carbide glass breaker can break glass if needed.
As for maintenance, keep the tool clean after each use. Wipe it down with a dry cloth. If it gets wet, dry it thoroughly to prevent rust. The high - carbon stainless steel is durable, but avoid using it on extremely hard materials that could damage the tools. Remember, the tool comes with a 25 - year warranty, so if you have any issues, you can reach out to Leatherman for support.
