  • Clamp the tubing securely in a vice or clamp to prevent it from moving while cutting.
  • Use a sharp, clean tubing cutter (specially designed for plastic tubing) and rotate around the tubing, applying gentle pressure.
  • Avoid using a blade as it will crush or deform the tubing while making a cut.
  • Make sure to keep the cutter wheel aligned with the marked line and rotate the cutter in a single direction until the tubing is fully cut.
  • After cutting, remove any burrs from the inside and outside of the edge with the help of a deburring tool or sandpaper.
  • Now, clean the cut edge with a dry cloth to remove any dust or debris before making any connection.
