Mode d'emploi
The DEWALT IMPACT CONNECT PVC/PEX Cutter is designed for efficient and clean cuts in various pipe materials up to 2 inches in diameter.
- Préparer le tuyau : Mark the desired cut line on the pipe. Ensure the pipe is clean and free of debris.
- Positionnez le coupeur : Open the cutter jaws and place the pipe into the jaws, aligning the cut line with the blade. Ensure the pipe is seated squarely in the jaws.
- Lancer la coupe : With a firm grip on the impact driver and the cutter, slowly press the trigger of your impact driver. Allow the blade to gradually close and cut through the pipe. For cleaner cuts, especially on larger or thicker pipes, use a slower speed setting on your impact driver if available.
- Version complète : Continue applying pressure until the cut is complete. Release the trigger and remove the pipe.
