Troubleshooting
Problem
Solution
Wires get jammed in the
machine
There are a few possible fixes for this:
1: Loosen the top hand cranks to take pressure off springs to allow more room for
the springs to depress.
2: Check to make sure you are running the wire through the right channel. This
takes some time to figure out. Be patient when clearing the machine. Try the step
down method. Start in a larger hole than you think. Work your way down to a
smaller hole until ideal cut is made.
3: Only use the 1st two channels for running Romex®. They have the Rectangular
Guides.
4: The jacket on the wire you are trying to run is too thick. This machine will not
strip some wires where the jacket is too thick or the materials are too dense, such
as some underground plastics.
For smaller wire, the cut
in the wire jacket is not
in the center of the wire
The side adjustments could be out of alignment on the cutter rollers. The cutter
rollers on the top of the cutting assembly can adjust right to left. The cutting blades
should be centered in the middle of every roller. You can look down the middle of
every roller from front and back of the machine to see if the cutters are in the center.
If they are not, you can adjust the top cutter and rollers by adjusting the side bolts
(with the lock nut) to slightly shift the cutter/roller. Make sure you do not tighten the
bolts too much so the top cutter/roller assembly cannot raise and lower as wire
passes through. Think of these bolts as side stops only, just to keep the assembly
inline, so leave about 1mm gap in-between bolt and cutter/rollers.
The machine is
excessively loud and
makes grinding noise
These machines are generally on the noisier side as they use a gear drive system.
Firstly make sure the gears are greased. This can help with the noise. You can also
check the side adjustments as they could be out of alignment on the cutter rollers.
The cutter rollers on the top of the cutting assembly can adjust right to left/right.
The cutting blades should be centered in the middle of every roller especially those
on the left. You can look down the middle of every roller from front and back of the
machine to see if the cutters are in the center. If they are not, you can adjust the top
cutter and rollers by adjusting the side bolts (with the lock nut) to slightly shift the
cutter/roller. Make sure you do not tighten the bolts too much so the top
cutter/roller assembly cannot raise and lower as wire passes through. Think of
these bolts as side stops only, just to keep the assembly inline, so leave about 1mm
gap in between bolt and cutter/rollers.
The machine is not
cutting through the
entire jacket
Increase the tension on the top hand cranks. It is also possible that either you are
cutting wire that has too thick of a wire jacket or too dense a jacket. These jackets
may not be able to cut with this machine
