tachment or between the attachment and other objects.

This head is not insulated for use on or near energized con-

ductors.  Use of this head on or near energized conductors may

lead to electrical shock, causing severe injury or death.

Large forces are generated during product use that can

break or throw parts and cause injury. Stand clear during use

tection.

Never repair a damaged head. A head that has been welded,

ground, drilled or modified in any manner can break during use.

Figure 1 – SC-60 Scissor Cutting Head 

Specification

Cable ..................750 MCM (375 mm^2)

Class B Copper and Aluminum Wire. Max. Dia.

with insulation = 1.97" (50 mm)

Max. Tool Force....60 kN (13500 lbf) RE 60-IB

53 kN (11900 lbf) RE 53-IB

Weight ..................4.9 lb (2.2 kg)
Cutting capacity depends on a variety of factors including material

thickness, type, hardness and configuration. Cuts may not be able

to be completed based on these and other variables. 

Only cut aluminum or copper wire. Any other material,

such as steel, can dull and damage the blades.

Inspection/Maintenance

Inspect the Scissor Cutting Head before each use for issues that

could affect safe use.

1. With the battery removed from the tool, depress the QCS

sleeve and remove the head.

2. Clean the head and remove all dirt, oil, grease, and debris to

aid in inspection and improve control. Pay close attention to

the QCS coupling to ensure there is no debris to damage the

coupling.

3. Inspect the head for:

Proper assembly and completeness. Make sure guards are

present and secure.

Wear, corrosion or other damage. Dimples in the grooves of

the QCS are normal with use and are not considered dam-

age. Inspect the cutting edges for damage. 

Presence and readability of head markings.

If any issues are found, do not use head until corrected.

4. Inspect the electrical tool and any other equipment being used

as directed in their instructions.

5. The QCS coupling is lubricated for life at the factory and does

not require any further lubrication. Lubricate the pivot points

of the Scissor Cutting Head with a light weight general pur-

pose lubricating oil. Wipe off any excess oil.

Set Up/Operation

1. Determine the size and type of material to be cut. Select the

appropriate equipment per its specifications. Do not cut steel

wire. Mark the cut location on the wire.

2. Make sure all equipment is inspected and set up per its in-

structions.

3. Remove the battery from the tool. Depress the QCS

sleeve on the electric tool and insert the scissor cutting head.

Release the sleeve to retain the head. Confirm that the head

is fully inserted and locked into tool before turning ON. (If head

will not lock into QCS, ensure tool ram is fully retracted by

pressing the release button.)

4. Place the wire between the cutting edges of the Scissor Cut-

ting head, and squarely line up the cutting edge with the cut

location. Do not try to cut the wire at an angle.

5. With hands clear of the head and other moving parts, oper-

ate the Electrical Tool as per its instructions. Continue to press

the run switch until the tool ram automatically retracts and the

wire is cut. If the ram does not fully retract, press the electri-

cal tool pressure release button.

6. Inspect the cut. Be careful of any sharp edges.
