Electric Wolverine
Section One
Operation and Maintenance
Introduction
The Aries Electric Wolverine is a wheeled, self-propelled cutter tractor made for reinstalling
junctions or cutting out infiltrations found in the pipe. The Wolverine cutter tractor operates in
pipes sizes between 6 and 18 inches in diameter. The cutter tractor operates best in a prepared
pipeline. The Wolverine is driven by two axles, using 48V motors. The cutter tractor operates
using the Aries truck-mounted, mainline systems CC1750 control system and PR1750 Electric
Wolverine reel. Optimum cutter tractor operation requires proper electrical connections to the
Electric Wolverine cutter reel and tractor, the correct air pressure, and proper wheel and
extensions arrangements for the pipeline diameter being worked in. The Electric Wolverine
cutter tractor may sometimes be referred to as the CT1750. This manual is designed to assist
personnel when performing tractor configurations, wheel conversions, and maintenance
procedures.

Electric Wolverine
Section One
Operation and Maintenance
Safety
Care and precautions are needed when operating any electrical components in wet and
confined spaces.
Electric Wolverine Equipment Safety
1. Read and understand the supplied instructions before operating equipment.
2. The CT1750 Electric Wolverine cutter tractor is equipped with powerful cutting motor
arms that can pinch, causing injury to fingers or extremities.
3. To prevent personal injury or damage to equipment, turn off and disconnect all power
when making adjustments or performing maintenance.
4. Inspect cables before and after each use. Replace or repair any damaged cables.
5. Before connecting or disconnecting cables, verify all system power is off.
6. Lift cutter tractor solely with lift strap. Use main reel cable to guide tractor in and out of
the manholes. Do not lift cutter tractor by power cords, hoses, lift arms, or top clamp.
7. Do not use in hazardous or explosive atmospheres.
8. Do not submerge the cutter for prolonged periods. It is water resistant, NOT waterproof.
9. Do not drop the cutter tractor assembly.
Pipeline and Manhole Safety
1. Use the appropriate safety equipment and clothing - goggles, gloves, boots,
masks respirators, traffic signs, and cones - when working in confined spaces.
2. Follow all appropriate laws, regulations and guidelines for working in confined spaces.
3. Pipeline conditions are an important factor in life expectancy of your equipment.
Protruding taps, corroded or clogged lines, large offsets, and short sags in pipe make
travel difficult. Proceed carefully in those conditions.
Always use a lifting hook when lowering or raising the Electric Wolverine cutter tractor with a
retrieval pole assembly.
NOTES: Item 2 is not used on Electric Wolverine cutter tractors.

Operation and Maintenance
Truck System Interface
For first time users, use the Wolverine Quick Start Guide Manual (P N 970245) for operation
setup. The quick start guide was created to help direct users on how to set up the Wolverine
system correctly via step by step instructions and pictures.
Cable Connections
The Electric Wolverine cutter tractor requires three electrical cables and three hose
connections for full functionality. These inner connect points are located between the reel
cable termination and the Wolverine cutter tractor tip-up assembly. The three inner connect
cables are a two pin cable (P N 380112), a nineteen pin cable (P N 380113), and an eight coil
cable (P N 380380). The inner connect hoses are a small, blue air hose (P N 381053), a small,
black water hose (P N 381052), and a small, blue hose (P N 381015). These inner connect
points must be securely fastened and undamaged for full functionality. The strain relief from
the reel termination needs to be connected to the clevises (P N 380090) on the cutter tractor
tip-up to protect these inner connect points from damage before using the Electric Wolverine
cutter tractor.
If operations from the drive motors, the cutter tractor functions, or the cutter tractor camera
do not respond or respond faintly, troubleshoot the problem by using the inner connect cables
with the faceplate on the CC1750. The CC1750 control unit has a large nineteen pin socket and
a small two pin socket located on its faceplate. The nineteen pin socket is to test the cutter
tractor and cutter tractor camera (P N 380353). The two pin socket is to test the drive motors
(Front P N 380360 Rear P N 380350).
If the problems go away in testing the inner connect cables with the cutter tractor and camera
on the CC1750 control unit’s faceplate, the reel can be identified as the problem. See
Wolverine Electric Reel Cable for more information. If problems persist with the cutter tractor
or camera when using the inner connect cables with the faceplate, then the Electric Wolverine
reel and cable can be eliminated as the source of the issue.
Next, use the test cables to connect the cutter tractor and camera to the CC1750 faceplate. If
the problems do not go away when using the test cables with the cutter tractor or camera, then
the tractor and camera have been identified as the problem. Return the equipment to an Aries
facility for repair. See the Returning Equipment section. If the problems do go away when
using the test cables with the cutter tractor and camera, then the cable must be replaced. See
the Ordering Equipment section.
