RESIDUAL RISK

Before the cutting process begins, access must be sealed off in
accordance with local regulations.
Only ever cut cables that have been disconnected from the power
supply!
Cable and cord may not be exposed to any mechanical forces.
Failure to comply with this instruction can lead to serious injury,
death, fire and other damage to property as a result of electric
shock, explosion and/or electric arcs.
Wear goggles.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE

The cable cutter is suitable for cutting
• tension-free reinforced and non-reinforced cables of insulated
copper or aluminum, cutting tools depending on cable type
• ACSR-cables (aluminium/steel-cables)
• Steel cables
Only personnel trained in electrotechnical applications may carry
out cutting and splitting of cables and cords with the aid of this
cable cutter.
The operator of this cable cutter must be instructed in the specific
dangers associated with using this cable cutter and in the essential
safety measures before working with it for the first time and at
least once a year thereafter.
The operating company must:
• make the operating manual available to the operator and
• ensure that the operator has read and understood it.

USE
Set-up of the working area
Before work begins, the cables or cords must be disconnected and
it must be ensured that they remain isolated from the power supply
for the duration of the work.
If it cannot be ensured beyond doubt that the cable or insulated line
has been disconnected, no work may be carried out.
It is crucial that local safety provisions and the regulations are
observed.
Cable and cord may not be exposed to any mechanical forces and
must be secured from any uncontrolled movements following the
cut.
Do not expose tools to rain. Do not use tools in damp or wet
locations.
Preparation of cable cutter and battery
Before every use:
• Inspect cable cutter for external defects
• Check the cutting tool for cracks and other signs of wear
Only use in perfect condition!
Before the cutting process begins, the battery capacity must be
checked: minimum 33% (see illustrated description). It may require
charging before work commences.
Preparation for the cutting process
Support and fix the cable or rope to be cut to minimise the risk of
uncontrolled movement.
Overhead cables and cords, in particular, can move out of control
and cause injury and/or damage.
The cutting head must be positioned at an angle of 90° to the cable
or cord, so that the cable can lie in the opened cutting jaws without
tension and undesirable shearing forces can be avoided.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of explosions, electric
shock and damage to property and equipment, never cut
live electrical cables.
Tool is NOT insulated. Contact with a live circuit could result
in severe injury or death. Turn off power before making a
cut. Never cut gas or water lines. Keep hands away from all
cutting edges and moving parts. Laceration and amputati-
on can occur.
Always remove battery pack before changing or removing
accessories. Only use accessories specifically recommended
for this tool. Others may be hazardous.
To reduce the risk of injury, wear safety goggles or glasses
with side shields.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, only cut recom-
mended materials for the blades. (see „Specifications") Do
not attempt to cut other materials.
Cutting
Before cutting, ensure blades are properly installed.
1. Guide the cable at right angles to the cutting of the cable
cutter. Do not attempt to make angled cuts as it will damage the
workpiece and blades.
2. Pull and hold the trigger through the operation.
An LED will light when the trigger is pulled.
Once cutting has been carried out, or the tool is switched off, let the
release button go again and press the hydraulic reset button so that
the cutting bars open.
