Cutting Tips

Once the appropriate pin for a given size
pipe has been determined; marking the pin
can save time setting up subsequent cuts of
the same size.
For cleaner cuts, instead of tightening the
chain until the pipe is cut, tighten the chain
enough to mark the pipe. Then loosen the
chain and slightly rotate the pipe or the tool
and make another set of marks. Do this sev-
eral times to create marks all the way around
the pipe, then tighten the chain and break
the pipe.
When carrying your soil pipe cutter, do not
drag the chain. This can wear and damage
the cutter wheels, increasing cut force and
cause poor cut quality.
Corroded pipe can crush during cutting. Try
not to cut pipe where corroded.
Cutting off short sections of pipe (less than
one pipe diameter) can cause the pipe to
cut unevenly, crack or break.
