To make sure your tools work correctly, and for the longest possible time, it’s important to look after them and ensure they are used, and stored, properly.
Cleaning
As with all tools, it is important to keep plastic conduit pipe and hose cutters clean, and ensure they are dry before being put away. Moisture left on metal parts will cause tools to rust, but keeping them dry should prevent this.
Storage
The locking lever should be used to lock the blade shut when the tool is not being used. This should prevent damage to the blade and ensure it can not damage anything.
Replacing the blade
Over time, the blade will begin to blunt, however, most hose cutters have replaceable blades.
