During cutting, the gap between the blade tips (in the transverse direction) must not be
exceeded, otherwise the blade is in danger of breaking:
ATTENTION!
Where possible, avoid cutting through high-strength parts of the vehicle body
(e.g. side impact protection). This may result in damage to the blades or to
increased wear and tear!

Higher cutting capacities can be achieved by cutting as close as possible to the blade’s pivot point.

Use the front of the tips only to increase an existing gap. To increase grip and to avoid having
the tips slip or break out of the part to be processed, the grip should be reapplied at an early
stage. The highest force develops in the rear area of the cutting tip or in the rear spreading
area of the spreading tip.
WARNING / CAUTION / PLEASE NOTE!
The steel tool arms may not be damaged.
