Safety Procedures

Follow all basic and necessary procedures to secure the electrical site before beginning work. 

Follow all existing codes, requirements and instructions for all equipment used in conjunction 

with the Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool. Inspect the cutout carefully for damaged or 

corroded arcing horns, arcing bars or fuse doors. If arcing horns are corroded use standard 

electrical procedures to clean the arcing horns prior to utilizing the Jack Jumper™ Cutout 

Bypass Tool.
Inspect the porcelain for any damage or cracks. If either condition is found, do not use the 

Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool.

Trouble Shooting

If the Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool appears to be malfunctioning do not attempt to 

repair it. Immediately remove it from service, tag it as defective, note the specific problem, 

and return it to Utility Solutions for inspection. Any disassembly will invalidate any and all 

product guarantees, claims and warranties.

Maintenance

The Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool is designed to withstand usual operational usage. 

Proper care and handling will increase the longevity of service. Periodically inspect the Jack 

Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool for corrosion and copper coil fraying/separation. The Jack 

Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool is sold as a complete unit. Any maintenance, disassembly or 

misuse voids any and all warranties, guarantees, or liability.

Warranty

Utility Solutions warrants the Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool for any defects in 

manufacturing for the period of one year. If the tool is returned within that time period, Utility 

Solutions will replace the tool free of charge. No warranty is made if spring is overextended.

Installation

1.  Grasp the top perpendicular ring of the Jack Jumper™ 

Cutout Bypass Tool with the shotgun stick.

2.  Extend the shotgun stick as needed and per its instruction.

3.  Attach the upper attachment hook to the upper fuse door 

(Figure A).

4.  Be sure the Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool is secure 

and will not interfere with removal of the fuse.

5.  Release the top ring.

6.  Grasp the bottom in-line ring of the Jack Jumper™ Cutout 

Bypass Tool with the shotgun stick.

7.  Gently pull to expand the spring and hook the bottom 

attachment hook on the lower fuse door hinge casting 

(Figure B). The Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool is 

now in place; release it from the shotgun stick.

For 200 Ampere SMD-20 systems attach two Jack 

Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tools on opposite sides of the 

SMD-20 Power Fuse (this only works for SMD-20 Power 

Fuse Tools and cannot be utilized for standard cutouts). 

8.  Open the fuse door and replace as necessary.

Removal and Storage

After all repairs are complete and removed fuses or other 

items of equipment are replaced and the fuse door is closed, 

it is safe to remove the Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool.
1.  Grasp the bottom in-line ring of the Jack Jumper™ Cutout 

Bypass Tool with the shotgun stick and release the lower 

attachment hook (Figure C).

2.  Release the bottom ring from the shotgun stick, and then 

grasp the top perpendicular ring with the shotgun stick.

3.  Gently lift the Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool until the 

top attachment hook is free (Figure A or B).

4.  Return the Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool to its 

specially designed storage and transfer case.

The Jack Jumper™ Cutout Bypass Tool should be stretched 

slightly and visually inspected prior to utilization to ensure 

that the copper coil is not frayed or separated. If fraying or 

separation of the copper coil has occurred do not utilize the 

tool.
