Installing the wire cutter
Installing the wire 
cutter on the 
cleaning device
Attach the wire cutter holder (1) to the 
cleaning device
Fix the wire cutter (2) to the holder (1) 
using the two screws, two washers, 
two lock washers and two nuts as 
shown. The installer is responsible for 
selecting the correct screws, washers, 
lock washers and nuts
Attach the protective cover (3) to the 
holder (1)
If using an electrically controlled wire 
cutter: Plug the wire cutter connecting 
cable into the wire cutter connection 
socket on the cleaning device
Maximum wire di-
ameter
For conventional applications (one wire electrode), wire electrodes with a diameter of up 
to 1.6 mm (0.063 in.) can be cut by the respective wire cutter.
For twin applications (two wire electrodes), two wire electrodes with diameters of up to 1.6 
mm (0.063 in.) can be cut simultaneously by the respective wire cutter.
How the mechani-
cally controlled 
wire cutter works
NOTE! Wire cutters for conventional applications (one wire electrode) and for 
twin applications (two wire electrodes) are installed in the same way - as de-
scribed below.

NOTE! The wire cutter cannot be supplied with compressed air from the cleaning 
device. The wire cutter must be supplied with compressed air from a separate 
supply line.
NOTE! Wire cutters for twin applications may differ slightly in appearance from 
the one shown in the following figure. Wire cutters for conventional applications 
(one wire electrode) and for twin applications (two wire electrodes) work in the 
same way - as described below.
