2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
2.1) Setting
Select the appropriate die set. Two styles of die set are available:
– Die Sets for cutting contact wire: the die profi le matches the profi le of the contact wire.
– Die Sets for cutting conductor: the die profi le matches the profi le of the conductor.
2.2) Positioning
(Ref. to Figs. 1, 2, 3 and 4)
– Insert the die set into the head (see § 2.6).
– Position the conductor inside the die set so that the blade (13) lines up with the desired cutting
point.
– Close the die set (see fi g. 2) by moving the locking handle (18) towards the tool body, until
automatically 'locked' in position and securely clamping the wire/conductor (see fi g. 3).
– Press operating button (4) to activate the motor-pump group for the advancement of the blade
(13) to the conductor (see fi g. 4).
Before proceeding with the cutting operation, ensure that the locking pin (17) is fully inserted
into the head and the locking handle (18) is securely locked in position.
Check that the cutting edge of the blade coincides with the desired cutting point, otherwise
re-open dies following instructions as per § 2.5 and reposition the wire / conductor.
2.3) Cutting
Continue pressing operating button (4): the blade (13) progressively advances until the conductor
is completely cut in a clean and precise manner, without deforming the conductor itself. To halt the
advancement, release operating button (4) and the motor will cut out.
The motor will continue to operate after the maximum pressure relief valve has activated.
No further cutting force is applied, the oil is bypassed and returned to the reservoir.

O NOT ATTEMPT TO CUT STEEL RODS WITH THIS TOOL
2.4) Head rotation
For ease of operation, the tool head can rotate through 180°, allowing the operator to work in the
most comfortable position.
Warning: Do not attempt to turn the head if the hydraulic circuit is pressurised.
2.5) Release of dies
– Press the pressure release button (9) for rapid retraction of the ram (16).
– By releasing the locking handle (18) the dies open and release the wire/conductor.
2.6) Inserting the die set
– Remove the locking pin (17) and insert the die set into the top of the tool and position the 'loca-
tor' (A) in the guide at the bottom of the head. Ensure that the recess (B) on the front of the die
set faces the blade (13).
