4.2. Cutter Adjustment
The trim and pointing tool is already adjusted for most
kinds of semi-rigid coaxial cable. However, if
adjustment becomes necessary, proceed as follows:
1. Assemble the set gage in the holding base, as if it
were a cable.
2. Loosen the .050-inch hex, set screw and retract
the cutter slightly.
3. Put holder base/cutting gage assembly into the
cutting portion of the cutting base.
4. Push the the cutting blade into the cutter set
gage. Then tighten the set screw.
NOTE
i
The slight changes in cutting depth are determined
by by how hard the cutter is pushed.
4.3. Cutter Replacement
If the pointing cutter becomes dull, remove the holding
screw and remove the insert. Reposition the insert so
a new cutting edge rests against the tool.
NOTE ^{There are six cutting edges per insert.}
