How to use

Position the cable between the cutting blades at the desired cutting point, keeping fingers clear of the cutting area. Squeeze the handles firmly and steadily until the blades have fully cut through the cable. For thicker or multi-layer cables, make a controlled progressive cut rather than forcing the tool. Inspect the cut end for burrs and trim if necessary before terminating or fitting connectors.

Recommendations

Regularly inspect the cutting edges for wear and keep them clean to maintain cutting quality. Use protective eyewear when cutting under tension or in environments with loose insulation fragments. Store the tool in a dry place and avoid exposing it to corrosive substances to prolong service life.
