OPERATION
Before deployment, function test the tool and ensure that all operators are familiar with
this procedure. ROV observation of the tool should be maintained at all time during operation.
Prior to use, ensure no damage has occurred to the blade or anvil. Ensure the anvil is
fully retracted.
DEPLOYMENT
Prior to use, the auxiliary cylinder outstroke should be operated to withdraw the anvil.
This clears access for the cutter to be placed over the wire rope.
Place the cutter over the wire rope. Ensure that the wire rope is as far into the cutter as
possible so that the anvil does not foul as it is reset. Place the cutter over the wire rope.
