how does it⁢ perform on older fencing?

Step 1. Choose any convenient point along the slack fence line to make the repair. Spread the tool handles and place the slack wire in jaw slots.

Step 2. Bring the handles together to stretch the wire as tight as possible, forming a loop in the fence wire. Secure the tool in this position by attaching the chain to the notch in the right handle.

Step 3. Lay a short length of spare wire across face of tool, allowing 7' to 10' on either side.(Any kind of strong wire will work in making the repair.)

Step 4. Wrap spare wire around the stretched fence wire making sure to get a least 2 full wraps on each side.

Step 5. Inset fence pliers handle
(or any tool) into the loop. Wrap
the loop around the spare wire.

Step 6. Continue wrapping until loop is
completely closed around the spare wire.

Step 7. Loosen the chain and
remove tool from wire.
