The patented 

ROTO-SPLIT

 strips #14, 12, 10 & 8 gauge BX & MC cable & cuts 3/8" trade size flex.  The new patent pending 

ROTO-SPLIT 

®

 

RS-101AC & RS-101B

 have exclusive 

auto clamping.  

The 

RS-101AC

 strips new 

reduced diameter brands 

of MC cable

. The 

ROTO-FLEX

 cuts 1/2" to 3/4" trade size flex & strips large size BX & MC cable such as: AWG #2/3 & AWG 

#4/3.  For larger cables & flex up to 1-1/2" trade size use our 

ROTO-FLEX RF-170.

Remove the hex nut from the 

curved handle

 

c

.  Put the threaded screw 

into the blade shaft and push out the red plug.  Screw on the hex nut 

with the counterbored side against the blade. Tighten the nut with an

a

 and insert 

cable

 

b

 into the channel.  Squeeze quick 

clamping lever until the 

clamping stud 

e

 

reaches the bottom of the 

cable groove.  

The tip of the quick clamping lever

 should be 

just above  the bottom of the tool

.  Adjust the depth of the 

clamping 

stud 

e

  by turning 

knob

 

a

 until the lever is in the correct position.    

It 

is important to note that the cable should be clamped securely 

but not overtightened.   Adjustment is normally not required 

when switching from #14 to #12 cables.

  The quick clamping & 

release feature of the RS-101A makes it twice as fast as the original.
