ATTACHING CUTTERS TO A LEADER
Note:
See the Cutter Application Chart to select the appropriate lead-
er to use with each cutter.

Carbide tipped chains can damage plastic. Use caution if
the clay pipe is broken or fragile.
Use carbide tipped chain only in
metal pipes.

tightened onto a leader. Never use permanent thread locker. See
manufacturer's website for proper use.
1. Before attaching leaders, chains or cutters, always be sure the
machine is turned OFF and unplugged.
2. Inspect the leader for damage. DO NOT use a leader it is dam-
aged.
3. Loosen the set screws in the cutter so that the leader will pass
through.
4. Proceed to the appropriate section for the cutter you are attaching.
