Once the replacement blade is installed, the pipe cutter is ready for use. Always follow safe operating procedures.
- Open Cutter: Squeeze the handles of the pipe cutter to fully open the jaws and retract the blade.
- Posizione del tubo: Place the pipe to be cut into the cutter's jaws, ensuring it is perpendicular to the blade for a straight cut. Position the pipe at the desired cut mark.

Manutenzione
Proper maintenance extends the life of your replacement blade and ensures optimal cutting performance.

- Ispezione: Regularly inspect the blade for signs of wear, dullness, or damage. A dull blade can lead to rough cuts and increased effort. Replace the blade if it shows significant wear or damage.
- Magazzinaggio: Store the pipe cutter with the blade retracted in a dry environment to prevent rust and protect the cutting edge.
