Usage procedure
1.
Push the work lever (the fiber optic cleaver will open).
2.
Open the fiber holding flange.
3.
Peel from 30 to 40mm of the fiber that is going to be cut (leave a
fiber thickness around 125 microns). Clean the peeled fiber with an
isopropyl alcohol wipe.
4.
Place the peeled fiber over the guide slot (choose one of the 3, based
on the type of fiber used). The fiber length that must remain after the
cut will depend on the requirements of the fusion splicer or other
equipment of fiber used. The usual value is 16mm, but it can be
adjusted between 5 and 20mm.
5.
Close the fiber holding flange.
6.
Make sure that the fiber is perpendicular to the cutting blade.
7.
Close the work lever.
8.
Move the blade slider up to the limit. The fiber will now be cut.
9.
Push the work lever (the fiber optic cleaver will open). At this point the
leftover fiber should be pushed into the fiber storage container.
10.
Grab the fiber and open the fiber holding flange.
11.
Remove the fiber.
12.
After several operations, it is recommended to empty the fiber
storage container.
