The low profile design of the LCRC models needs only 5" clearance for up to 16" pipe diameter. Each cutter is supplied with a slip-on handle that is used to turn the cutter around the pipe in one direction. The handle is also used to tighten the cutter every 1/2 revolution. Rotary cutters are the best manual cutters for ductile iron. With good leverage from long handle, pipe snaps off squarely before wheel penetrates halfway through pipe.

Transcript
00:00This is the LCRC cutter. We're going to cut this 6-inch cast iron pipe. I am wrapping it around
00:17and make sure the pins locks in. Make sure that everything is even on both sides. Right here,
00:33these are centering. You just kind of, as long as everything's touching, you're going to be flat on
00:39the pipe and you get a good straight cut. Yes, I'm tightening both sides so they're the same.
01:02And I don't have it, I'm getting pretty close, but I don't have it tightened up yet. You can
01:08feel it wiggling. You attach the bar and you just turn it. Yeah, I'm using the handle to tighten up
01:34the tool as we go by. I mean, these tools work really good. It's, if you have the room,
02:03it's really nice. Even in tight spots, you see, I had a pretty tight spot. We made it work. I'm
02:09very impressed with it. The inner pins, there's four of them, three bolts and a pin. The inner
02:29ones are six inch. The outer ones are eight inch. We're setting up now to do eight inch pipe and you
02:35got to make sure that these, this turn buckle here is out and pretty even. Slide it out to
02:46the outer pins and just gives you more reach for the bigger pipe. And you just unscrew the
03:11turnbuckles like I did the other one.
