How to use
To use the Erko RC 20, open the handles fully to expose the cutting blades.

Firmly squeeze the handles together in a single, controlled motion to complete the cut. Avoid twisting the tool during the cutting process to maintain the integrity of the blades.
What to consider before purchase
Verify the maximum diameter of the cables you intend to cut
Ensure the material of the cable is compatible with manual cutting tools
Assess the frequency of use to determine if a manual tool meets your productivity requirements
