What happens here

To release the spring clamp, the user simply presses a small lever or button on the side of the Knipex pliers. This action disengages the internal locking mechanism, allowing the handles to spring open and release the tension on the clamp, which then closes back onto the hose.

Goal: Disengage the locking mechanism and release the clamp.
