4. Bedienungsanleitung
Follow these steps to longitudinally strip a cable center beam tube using the Garosa Tube Slitter:
- Select the Correct Slitter: Identify the outer diameter of the cable's center beam tube. Choose the tube slitter with the corresponding diameter marking (4.5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, or 11mm). Using an incorrect size may damage the cable or the tool.
- Open the Slitter: Gently open the tube slitter to expose the guide slots and blades.
- Positionieren Sie das Kabel: Place the cable's center beam tube into the appropriate guide slot. Ensure the cable is seated firmly and aligned with the blades.
- Close the Slitter: Close the slitter securely around the cable. The tool should hold the cable firmly without excessive force.
- Perform the Strip: While holding the slitter firmly, slide it along the length of the cable where the strip is desired. Apply steady, even pressure. The blades will longitudinally cut the outer jacket of the tube.
- Remove the Cable: Once the desired length is stripped, open the slitter and carefully remove the cable. The stripped section of the tube jacket can now be removed.

Vorsicht: The blades are extremely sharp. Always handle the tool with care to avoid injury. Keep fingers clear of the blades during operation.
5. Wartung
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your Garosa Tube Slitters.
- Reinigung: After each use, wipe the tool clean with a dry, soft cloth to remove any cable debris or dust. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Klingeninspektion: Regularly inspect the blades for sharpness and any signs of wear or damage. Dull or damaged blades can lead to poor stripping quality and potential cable damage.
- Lagerung: Store the tube slitters in a dry, clean environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep them in their original packaging or a suitable tool case to protect the blades.
- Schmierung: No lubrication is typically required for the blades or moving parts.
6. Fehlerbehebung
If you encounter issues while using the tube slitters, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Mögliche Ursache | Lösung |
|---|---|---|
| Uneven or incomplete strip | Incorrect slitter size; dull or damaged blades; inconsistent pressure during stripping. | Ensure the correct slitter diameter is selected. Inspect blades for sharpness and replace if necessary. Apply steady, even pressure while sliding the tool. |
| Difficulty sliding the tool | Cable not properly seated; debris in guide slots; cable material resistance. | Verify the cable is correctly positioned in the guide slot. Clean any debris from the slots. Ensure the cable material is compatible with the tool. |
| Damage to inner fibers/conductors | Incorrect slitter size; excessive force; improper technique. | Always use the correct slitter size for the cable's outer jacket. Apply only necessary pressure. Practice on scrap cable if unsure of technique. |
