Work Area Safety
• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Personal Safety
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of distraction while operating power tools may result in personal injury.
• Use personal protection equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.

Tool Use and Care
• To prevent leakage, overheating, smoke generation, fire, and rupturing from occurring, follow these instructions when handling
our rechargeable power tools (tool main body/battery pack/charger).
• Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
• Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and o. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
• Disconnect the battery pack from the tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
• Store idle tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the tool or these instructions to operate the
tool. These tools can be dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may aect the
tools operation. If damaged, have the tool repaired before use.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

If necessary, use the rigging points on the tool to secure it from falling after the cut is made. The tool
has several options for rigging depending on application. The kit will include hanging rings for proper
rigging.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Position, Rig, and Ground
Secure the blade around the cable to be cut and make sure the blade engagement lever is secured.
To secure the lever, pull down lever as shown and move blade into pinion gear. Release once blade
stops.
Grounding stud is provided. Attach the stud to pivot bolt as shown and adjust angle to avoid
interference with the cable. Lock the position of the stud in place by tightening the lock nut.

MODEL: RCC-MK754ACM
At this point, operator can safely remove themselves from the area or line of sight with the tool for actual
operation. This will be up to each company for their own policy and procedures for remote cutting.
On the remote hand-held device, turn power switch to “ON” position. Confirm “power”, “blade engage” and
“paired” LED’s are all illuminated.
To operate the tool to cut, press both buttons on the remote – no sequence is needed, as long as both
buttons are pressed, the tool will operate. The tool with stop when one or both buttons are released.
The operator will know the cable is cut when the yellow “blade engaged” LED is off – this indicates the
blade has completely gone through its arc and out the other side, leaving no chance the cable has not
been cut. If LED is still illuminated, the blade has stopped, and cable is not cut. Cycle time should be
approximately 15 to 20 seconds.

Battery and Charger Use and Care
• Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on battery charger,
battery pack, and product using battery pack.
• To reduce the risk of injury, charge only Huskie Tools Battery Pack model BP-185. Other types of
batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
• Do not leave charger and battery pack exposed to rain or snow, submerge in water, or stored in
damp or wet locations.
• To reduce risk of damaging the electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting charger.
• Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to
damage or stress.
• Do not disassemble charger or battery pack, contact Huskie Tools service dept. at 800-860-6170
when service or repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
• Do not store the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed
50°C (122°F) (such as a metal tool shed, or a car in the summer), which can lead to deterioration of
the storage battery.
• Do not charge battery pack when the temperature is BELOW 0°C (32°F) or ABOVE 40°C (104°F). This
is very important to maintain optimal condition of the battery pack.
• The charger is designed to operate on standard 120V AC electrical power only. Do not attempt to
use it on any other voltage.
• Charge the battery pack in a well-ventilated place, do not cover the charger and battery pack with a
cloth, etc., while charging.
• Use of an attachment not recommended may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or personal
injury.
• Do not short the battery pack or allow metal objects to touch the terminals. A battery short can
cause a large current flow, overheating and create the risk of fire or personal injury.
• Huskie Tools is not responsible for any damage or accident caused by the use of recycled or
counterfeit battery pack.
• Do not incinerate the battery pack or dispose of the battery pack in a fire or expose it to excessive
heat.
• Do not charge the battery pack in a high-temperature location, such as next to a fire or in direct
sunlight. Otherwise, the battery may overheat, catch fire, or explode.
• After removing the battery pack from the tool or the charger, always re-attach the pack cover.
Otherwise, the battery contacts could be shorted, leading to a risk of fire.
• When the Battery Pack Has Deteriorated, Replace It with a New One. Continued use of a damaged
battery pack may result in heat generation, ignition or battery rupture.
• When storing, remove any material cuttings and dust from the battery pack, and place the battery
pack separately from metal objects (screws, nails, etc.) when storing in the tool case.
