A sleeve insertion tool includes an elongate cylindrical body having a closed distal end, an open proximal end, and an inner chamber extending from the proximal end toward the distal end. A jaw cavity is defined within the body and extends distally from the inner chamber, and a protective sleeve is receivable within the inner chamber and defines an aperture at a distal end thereof. An end effector with one or more jaw members is receivable within the interior and the one or more jaw members are extendable through the aperture of the protective sleeve and receivable into the jaw cavity.
