Using your Klein 50034 ratcheting PVC cutter is a breeze. First, make sure the pipe you want to cut is within the 1/2 - Inch to 2 - 1/2 - Inch range of white or gray schedule 40 and 80 PVC. Place the pipe in the hooked jaw to hold it firmly in the right position for cutting. Then, use the ratchet action with one hand to start the cutting process. If you need to release the blade, you can do it quickly with just one hand. When cutting pipes with diameters less than 2 - Inch (51 mm), use the flip - out support to prevent the pipe from flattening. For maintenance, keep the cutter clean after each use. If the blade gets dull, you can easily replace it with a new one (Cat. No. 50035) without using any tools. Always store the cutter in a dry place to prevent any damage. Remember, since the blade is inside the cutter's body, there's less risk of injury, but still handle it with care.
