Pre-Operation
Inspection and
Maintenance
WARNING
Before each use, inspect your soil pipe
cutter and correct any problems to re-
duce the risk of serious injury from strik-
ing or impact injuries and other causes
and prevent soil pipe cutter damage.
1. Clean the soil pipe cutter and remove all
dirt, oil, grease and debris, especially
from handles and controls. This aids in in-
spection and helps prevent the tool from
slipping from your grip during use. If
needed, the chain can be cleaned with a
wire brush.
2. Inspect the soil pipe cutter for the follow-
ing items:
• Proper assembly and com pleteness
• Broken, cracked, missing, bent or bind-
ing parts
• Excessive corrosion and wear
• Smooth, free movement of ratchet,
screws, chain and linkages
• Presence and readability of warning la-
bels
3. Inspect the chain for signs of overload or
other damage. There should be no signif-
icant gaps between the plates of the
chain. If there are large gaps between
the links of the chain or other damage,
the chain should be replaced. Check the
cutter wheels for wear and damage. Worn
and damaged cutter wheels increase cut
force and can cause poor quality cuts.
4. On the 226 Soil Pipe Cutter, press the

release button in the center of the ratchet
head and place into the end of the feed-
screw. The ratchet should lock firmly into
place. This helps to prevent the ratchet
from coming loose from the cutter when in
use. If using a different ratchet or wrench,
be aware that it could come loose during
use.
5. If any problems are found, do not use
the soil pipe cutter until corrected. Have
your tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the tool is maintained.
6. If needed, lubricate pivot points and the
chain with a light lubricating oil. Wipe any
excess oil off.
Tool Set-Up and
Operation
Keep bystanders out of work area while
cutting. Stand clear of the pipe. Cutting
can cause pieces of pipe to be thrown
with considerable force. This can cause
striking injuries, eye injuries, or other
serious personal injury.
1. Check work area for adequate lighting
and a clear, level, stable place to work. Do
not operate in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Tools can create
