Blade Replacement, Parts and Accessories
Blade Replacement (See exploded view above)
Your Drill-Powered Cable Cutter unit is designed for easy blade
replacement. If blade damage occurs that cannot be filed away, or if
blades are accidentally used on steel or ACSR, replace both blades
as described below:
1. Disconnect drill from power source or battery, then detach unit
from drill. Do not attempt blade replacement with drill attached.
2. Remove four hex screws from end cap that sits on top of the fixed
blade using a
5
⁄329 hex wrench (Figure 8).
3. Remove end cap from unit (Figure 9).
4. Remove 6 hex screws attaching blade to body, using a
1
⁄89 hex
wrench (Figure 10).
5. Remove blade assembly.
6. Replace with a new blade set, IDEAL part #K-8906R.
7. Reinstall using screws removed earlier.
Always replace blades in sets for optimal performance. Replacing
only one side will increase war and shorten overall blade life.
