Transcript:

The Jonard Industries RC-600 ratcheting cable cutter, cuts up to 600 MCM stranded copper cable, 750 MCM stranded aluminum cable and has a maximum capacity cutting cable up to 1 3/4 inches or 45 millimeters in diameter. The RC-600 features large ergonomic handles and hardened cutting blades that will allow the cutter to cleanly cut copper or aluminum and multiconductor cable up to 600 MCM and its unique design will hold and cut cable quickly and easily with minimum effort.

The cutter also features a spring design to hold the cutter in the open position and when needed, it has a quick release for easy opening. Note at any time you can press the release plate and move the blade upward to stop cutting. Please note the RC-600 is not designed for cutting ACSR or steel and it is important to always wear approved eye protection when cutting cable. To use the RC-600, first Twist the handle lock to the unlock position to release the handle. Next, extend the handle completely outward, Press the blade release and pull the moving blade upwards. This will enlarge the opening to accept the cable. Next, insert the cable and push the movable blade downwards until the cable fits securely in the cutter and squeeze the handle repeatedly until the cable is cut.
