Maintenance

General

Maintain the tool with care. Keep the blades sharp

and the tool clean for better and safer performance.

Follow instructions for lubricating the cutter; lubrication

prolongs the tool life and enables the tool to cut with

less force. Keep grips dry, clean and free from oil

and grease.

Cleaning the cutter

Blow dirt and/or cable particles out of the drive

mechanism with compressed air.

Lubricating the cutter

Close jaws and place 3-in-one oil or equivalent on the

blades. Oil the jaw bolt (25), spacer (4), and jaw areas

around them. Also oil the master gear (16), and pawls

(15) at their respective shafts (19) and contact surfaces.

Oil the inside of the housing plates (13 and 23) where

contacted by the lever handle plates (14 and 22). Open

and close the cutter to spread the oil.

Disassemble, clean and lubricate the tool if it does not

operate smoothly.

Wear eye protection when using

this tool.

Keep hands away from closing

blades.

Pinch points:

Keep hands away from moving parts.

Disassembly

This tool consists of three basic operating mechanisms

(see Figure 1).

1. Cutter jaw mechanism: stationary jaw (1), movable

jaw (3), jaw bolt (25), jaw spacer (4), return spring

(5), and related hardware.

2. Jaw drive mechanism: master drive gear (16),

master gear shaft (26), drive pawl (15), pawl spring

(12), pawl shaft (19), top and bottom handle plates

(14 and 22) and operating lever.

Jaw holding mechanism: holding pawl (15), pawl

spring (17), pawl shaft (19) and pawl release pin (27).

Maintenance (cont’d)

The jaw mechanism can be removed without removing

the boot. Both the jaw mechanism and drive mechanism

can be removed and serviced without disassembly of

the housing.

1. Turn back boot (33) and remove cap screw (21).

Release tension on extension spring (5) by opening

the operating lever and rotating release pin (27)

outward.

2. Turn back boot and remove nut (6).

3. Remove bolt (25) and spacer (4).

4. Disconnect spring (5) from housing (13).

Unbutton one side of button strip (34) and spread

the sides of the boot to clear the pawl release pin

(27). Push the boot forward (away from the handles).

Tip the boot as needed to disengage the boot from

the notches at the top and bottom of the housing.

Alternately move the boot forward at the top and

bottom until the boot can be rotated off the tool.

6. Remove retaining ring (9) from gear shaft (26).

Also remove two screws (8) from stop pin (20).

7. Remove shaft (26) and gear (16).

8. Remove the operating lever assembly.

9. Remove rubber bumpers (10) from release pin (27).

Note: Use Loctite

#262 on all screws and tighten all

5/16" diameter screws to 190/170 inch pounds.

Use Loctite

#416 adhesive (cyanoacrylate) to

attach boot and release pin bumpers (10).

Lubricate moving parts with Molykote

grease

(see Figure 1).

Assembly (cont’d)

1. Assemble handle assembly (39) to bottom of

housing plate (13) using two screws (11).

2. Assemble stop pin (20). Place a spare 3/8" diameter

by 1-1/2" screw through the master gear hole in

bottom housing plate (13) and place assembly on

bench with screws up (see Figure 2).

3. Lubricate pawl shaft (19) and assemble pawl shaft,

pawl (15) with pin (37) projecting from pawl surface,

spring (12), bottom handle plate (14) and top handle

plate (22) to handle assembly using two screws

(11). The long leg of the spring goes against the

bottom handle adapter (28) and the short leg goes

under the pawl (see Figure 3).

4. Insert master gear (16) between top and bottom

handle plates against drive pawl (15) and assemble

over “spare” screw in bottom housing plate

(see Figure 4).

5. Place holding pawl (15) with release pin (27) and

spring (17) over hole in bottom housing plate and

insert lubricated pawl shaft (19). The pawl will

engage the master gear. The long leg of the spring

goes against the handle adapter (28) where it

touches the bottom housing plate and the short leg

goes under the pawl (see Figure 4).

6. Thread housing cover (35) between handle plates

above the master gear—between spring (17) and

handle adapter (28) (see Figure 4).
