Technical Data


STEP 1 Position the tool on the cable at the gland point and advance the cutting wheel into the outer insulation. Rotate the tool around the cable to cut fully through the insulation, then continue advancing the cutting wheel into the steel strands to the required depth. Repeat the insulation-only cut approximately 2 inches further along the cable.	STEP 2 Rotate the tool 90 degrees to the cable at the first cut point and advance the cutting wheel into the insulation. Guide the tool along the length of the cable, maintaining the correct cut depth, and adjust the cutting wheel as needed to ensure a clean cut through the insulation.	STEP 3 Split and remove the outer insulation sheath. Unwind the steel strands and break them at the cut point using fingertip pressure. Then remove the remaining insulation and carefully splay the strands.	STEP 4 Position the tool on the cable where the secondary insulation needs to be removed. Advance the cutting wheel and make a rotary cut to the required depth. Take care not to overcut, as this could damage the conductors.	STEP 5 Rotate the tool 90 degrees to the cable and advance the cutting wheel into the insulation. Guide the tool along the length of the cable to achieve the correct cut depth. Then split the secondary insulation layer and remove it to expose the conductors.
