During cutting, the gap between the blade tips (in the crosswise direction) may not be
exceeded, otherwise the blade is in danger of breaking:

CAUTION!
Avoid cutting particularly high-strength parts of the vehicle’s bodywork (e.g. side-
impact protection): this almost always causes damage to the cutter / combi tool!
Use the front area of the tips for increasing the gap only. Full spreading capacity can be
achieved when approximately half of the grooved area of the tips is used. The greatest force
is created in the rear area of the spreading range of the combi blade.
Working surface is too
small, tips slip off. Only
for increasing the size
of a gap (not suitable
for spreading)
Tips get a safe grip.
