Milwaukee M18 FUEL Covered Conductor Cable Stripper (Bare Tool)

Professional Performance for Demanding Electrical Tasks

The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Covered Conductor Cable Stripper is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of professional electricians. By leveraging Milwaukee’s proprietary POWERSTATE Brushless Motor technology, this tool provides the torque required for rapid cable stripping, significantly outperforming manual methods.

Expert Usage Tips for Optimal Results

To achieve the best results with solid core wires, we recommend ensuring the conductor is properly centered within the bushing. While this tool is optimized for heavy-duty applications, users should maintain a steady grip to ensure clean insulation removal. For smaller gauge wires (12-14 AWG), verify that the tension setting is calibrated to the specific insulation thickness to prevent slippage.

Ergonomics and Safety Guidelines

Safety is paramount in electrical work. We advise users to maintain a firm grip on the ergonomic handle, keeping fingers clear of the internal mechanism during operation. The tool features a deliberate locking mechanism; ensure the lock is fully engaged before transport to prevent accidental activation. If you have smaller hands, utilize the tool in a two-handed orientation to maintain full control and stability during the stripping process.

Precision Adjustment and Maintenance

The tension adjustment knob allows for customization based on cable size. For repetitive tasks, we suggest marking your preferred tension setting on the housing for consistent performance. Regular inspection of the cutter blades is recommended to ensure they remain free of debris, maintaining the integrity of the steel edges for long-term durability.
