Using this tubing cutter is a breeze. First, open the cutter by spinning the large knurled knob. Then, place the tubing you want to cut inside the cutter. Close the cutter by spinning the knob again until it grips the tubing firmly. Rotate the cutter around the tubing while applying gentle pressure. Keep rotating until the tubing is cut through. When using, make sure the tubing is properly positioned to get a clean cut. Avoid using excessive force as it might damage the cutter wheel. For maintenance, keep the cutter clean. Wipe it down after each use to prevent dirt from getting into the enclosed feed mechanism. If the cutter wheel gets dull, you can easily replace it with a new one. You can also buy a replacement SXT cutter heel (Part 42835) separately if needed. Store the cutter in a dry place to prevent corrosion due to its epoxy powder - coated finish, which will help it last a long time.
