To reduce the risk of injury,

wear gloves when cutting. Cut tubing can

be sharp. Do not hold end of tubing. Cutter will

always unplug the charger and remove

the battery pack from the charger or tool

Lubricating
To extend cutter life, use
a light oil to lubricate the
cutting wheel axle, roll-
ers, and mounting plate
when they appear dry.

Cutting
The tubing cutter can cut copper tubing from 3/8”
to 1” (trade size). Always support the workpiece to
prevent rotating and moving during cutting.
1. Open the carriage

2. Insert the workpiece squarely between the

jaws.

3. Line up the cutting line with the cutting blade

using the sight-line window.

Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from charger and tool vents.
Keep tool handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease.
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the
tool, battery pack and charger since certain cleaning
agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and other
insulated parts. Some of these include gasoline,
turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated
cleaning solvents, ammonia and household deter-
gents containing ammonia. Never use fl ammable or
combustible solvents around tools.

For repairs, return the tool, battery pack and char-
ger to the nearest service center.
