4. Operation

Follow these steps for safe and effective wire stripping:

  1. Adjust Blade Height: Rotate the adjustment knobs located on top of the machine to set the blade height. The goal is to cut through the insulation without damaging the inner copper wire. Test with a scrap piece of wire first.
  2. Select Feed Channel: Identify the appropriate feed channel for your wire's diameter. The machine features five distinct channels for various sizes, including flat wires.
  3. Power On: Press the green 'ON' button to start the machine. The red 'OFF' button serves as an emergency stop.
  4. Feed Wire: Carefully feed the insulated wire into the selected channel. The machine will automatically pull the wire through and strip the insulation.
  5. Collect Stripped Wire: Collect the stripped insulation and copper wire from the rear outlet.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your wire stripper.

  • Cleaning: After each use, disconnect the power and clean any accumulated insulation debris from the blades and feed channels using a brush or compressed air.
  • Blade Inspection: Periodically inspect the alloy steel blades for wear or damage. Sharp blades are crucial for effective stripping. Replace blades if they become dull or chipped.
  • Cooling Fan: Ensure the cooling fan vents are clear of dust and debris to maintain proper airflow and prevent motor overheating.
  • Lubrication: Apply a small amount of machine oil to moving parts as needed to ensure smooth operation.
