Transcript:

The 721 and 821 multi-wire strippers and cutters provide accurate, clean strips every time. The tools are compact, lightweight, and easy to use, with identifying AWG and millimeter wire sizes printed on the tool jaws. The 721 strips and cuts 20 to 10 AWG (8 to 2.6 mm) wire sizes, and the 821 strips and cuts 26 to 16 AWG (4 to 1.3 mm) wire sizes.

To use, first make a clean cut of the wire with the cutter incorporated in the jaw of the tool. Place the cleanly cut wire into the correct cavity corresponding with the wire size to be stripped. Clamp down on the wire completely, back off the pressure slightly, and strip the wire by pulling the tool toward the end of the wire.
