SAFETY GUIDELINES
To reduce the risk of injury, use this charger only with autho-
rized products. Other batteries or adapters may cause per-
sonal injury and/or damage.
• Do not expose the charger to rain, snow or direct sunlight.
• Use the charger at room temperature 68°F (20°C) to 77°F
(25° C).
• Place the charger in a well-ventilated area free of foreign
objects/matter.
• To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from
the outlet before cleaning or changing adapters.
• Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local haz-
ardous material laws.
• Do not disassemble, incinerate, modify or short circuit
batteries, charger or related components.
WARNING
This guide presents the setup, use, maintenance and troubleshoot-
ing of the charger along with instructions for conditioning your bat-
teries.
Before using the battery charger, read all instructions and caution-
ary markings on the battery charger, battery and on any product
using the battery.

POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION
The power supply uses a nominal 220 volt circuit. The power supply
manages and conditions the power input to the charger. The power
supply does not use a resettable or replaceable fuse. If a power
surge occurs the power supply temporarily interrupts the current
supply until the condition is corrected. If the power light on the pow-
er supply fails to light, an extreme surge may have occurred and
the power supply may trigger an internal fuse that must be serviced
by the manufacturer. Return the power supply for repair or replace-
ment immediately.
Never alter an AC cord or its plug. If it does not t into your
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualied electri-
cian. An improper connection can cause an electric shock.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, the charger must be
grounded.
Before using an adapter, ensure that the outlet box is
grounded. If you are not sure the box is grounded, have
it checked and repaired, if necessary, by a qualied elec-
trician.

GENERAL INFORMATION GUIDE
The following steps are guidelines for safe operation of the cutters.
Please take the time to review them as these are helpful hints that
have been accumulated over the years.
1. After inserting a battery pack, check if it is securely in place by
pushing it gently, and a “click” will be heard. While pressing the
latch, pull out the battery pack, to replace the battery pack, push
the new one rmly into place.
2. Open the xed cut head, insert cable, then close the xed cut
head and press the trigger to be cut.
3. Once the cut is done, press the release button to retract the
cutter.
4. Stay within the maximum cutting limits of each tool as listed.
5. Try to keep the cutter head clean. When cleaning, use a spay
lubricant to avoid a build up of dirt and sand which damage the
cutter head.
6. Stop cutting when the blade reaches the extreme end of its ad-
vance. If the material being cut (usually wire rope or soft cables)
seems to be cut but does not break free of the tool, this indi-
cates that the blade is jammed on a small piece of cable. Refer
to “troubleshooting” to free the blade.
7. All tools require proper care. Occasional cleaning and degreas-
ing in solvent, and sharpening blade and cutter head, will keep
these tools operating without problems.
8. The most common problem encountered is blade breakage.

GENERAL INFORMATION GUIDE
Ninety-nine percent of all breakage occurs because the
cutter head is not securely latched before cutting. If the
latch is not secured, the blade will push open the cutter head
and damage both the body head and blade. This causes the
outside ear to the blade to break on an angle. In some cases,
the whole cutter head may crack in half. Cutting material that
is not specied may also cause blade damage. In time, these
blades will fatigue and crack and must be replaced.
9. There may be a residue of oil present on new tools when they
are removed from the original shipping container. This is to pro-
tect the tool from corrosion during shipment and storage, and
should not be considered defective. The tool can be cleaned
with a spray degreaser or soapy water.
10. If tool is jammed, avoid beating directly on the tool with a ham-
mer, especially avoid attening the piston cylinder. Use a ham-
mer in conjunction with a block of wood or soft material to free
the blade. See troubleshooting in page 5.
11. All tools can be reconditioned and overhauled. Call factory and
obtain an RGA# for returning tools.
12. Always return tools to their carrying case to protect them from
sand and dirt.
13. Always carry a spare blade (Part No. 20-07), preferably at-
tached to the carrying case.
14. When cutting, keep area clear of spectators as hardened met-
als may y apart when severed.

GENERAL INFORMATION GUIDE
BLADE SHARPENING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Always cut the material at a 90 degree angle to the blade. Any
other angle may cause the blade and head shear to fracture.
See illustration below.
2. Head rotates 180° for proper cut angle.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before cutting, make sure the material being cut is within the
proper cutting capacity of the tool being used.
2. Open cutter head by lifting latch.
3. Insert material between cutter head and blade and secure latch.
It is important that you check the latch for proper engagement
before continuing with the cut. Failure to secure the latch can
result in severe tool damage and personal injury.
4. Align the material 90 degree angle to the blade. This will ensure
a proper cut with minimal distortion. If the material is cut at any
other angle, severe blade damage may occur. Refer to diagram
on page 9 for proper alignment.
5. Once the cut is made, the release lever under trigger can be
depressed to retract the blade.
6. These cutters do not have a by-pass cartridge like our com-
pression tools, so they should be released once the cut is made
and not continued to be advanced. If the tool is advanced under
pressure with no load, it is dicult to release the blade. Refer to
the troubleshooting on page 10 if this condition occurs.
7. Always wear eye protection and any other specied safety
equipment when cutting. Be sure surrounding area is clear, as
hardened metals may y apart when severed.
8. Do not use to cut EHS Guy Wire or Bridge Strand. Contact
Loos & Co., Inc. Cableware Division for these cutters.
