• ACSR power cable up to and including 556 kcmil

• 500 kcmil hard drawn electrical conductors 1.40 in. (35,6 mm) maximum outside diameter

• 750 kcmil soft drawn electrical conductors 1.60 in. (40,6 mm) maximum outside diameter

• Self-support (figure 8) telecommunications cable 1.74 in. (44,2 mm) with a maximum support messenger size of .276 in. (7mm)

• Overall length 18 in. (457 mm)

Note: Do not exceed these maximum cutting capacities for this tool or tool damage will occur.

When cutting with this tool, observe the following important directions:

• The cable must enter into the jaws of the tool exactly perpendicular (90 degrees) to the cutting blades so as to result in a circular cross-section cut.

• When cutting self-support cable, always orient the supporting strand so it faces the handles for maximum leverage.

• If you encounter excessive cutting resistance, use a one click cutting cycle until the cutter moves freely.

• Tighten the fulcrum nut periodically and keep the handle bolts tight. The tool will not operate properly unless the fulcrum nut is at least 15 ft-lbs. (20 Newton meters).

• Blades made from 6150 alloy steel

Never use this tool to cut electrically energized cable. Severe or fatal injury may result.
