Description – purpose of use
Rechargeable cordless USB (thermal) cutter Extol® Premium 8891504
with a set of cutting attachments is intended for shortening, cutting
out, grooving and forming cutting work in plastic foam boards such
as, for example polystyrene foam, polyethylene foam, etc. The hot
line can be used to perform fine and accurate cutting out of shapes from thick
polystyrene (fig.3), whilst the entire cordless cutter unit can be clamped in a
workbench holder (fig. 8); and the blade can be used to perform shortening cuts and
cutting out of larger dimensions from thinner boards (fig. 4); using the U-shaped
blade it is possible to cut out grooves (fig. 5) or using the welding attachment it is
possible to weld plastics and more (fig. 6), but with the used of copper welding tips
it is also possible to soft solder metals (fig. 7). The cordless cutter has a sufficient
temperature for soft soldering of metals. Thanks to its ergonomic shape, the cordless cutter
is pleasant to hold, has a low weight and small dimensions for comfortable work.

CHARGING THE CORDLESS CUTTER
y To charge the cordless cutter, use a 5V USB char-
ging power source. The device has electronic pro-
tection against currents exceeding 1A, i.e. the max.
current in the USB power source is not relevant.
Insert the USB-C plug of the USB cable into
the USB-C socket of the cutter (fig. 1, position
2). When charging, the red indicator light (fig.
1, position 3) will be lit. When charged, the
indicator light is lit green. To achieve a longer
lifetime of the built-in battery, we recommend
charging the cordless cutter during use (if this
is possible from the factory). If the indicator
light is flashing, the battery is flat, and therefo-
re charge the device.
CHANGING ATTACHMENTS
•
WARNING
y Prior to changing the attachments, ensure that
the power switch (fig. 1, position 1) is in the
„OFF" position and that the device has cooled
down. In the event that the power switch is in
the „ON" position, the user could suffer burns
while changing the attachment because by
putting the attachment on the device, it will
quickly heat up to a high temperature, where
the attachment heats up and not the ends of
the cordless cutter to which the attachment is
connected. Remove the installed attachment
and put on another one as shown in fig. 2.
y It is possible clamp the cordless cutter, together
with the line attachment, into a workbench
clamp, see fig. 8.
TURNING ON/OFF
y Turn on the device, only after putting on the
hot tool, by setting the power switch to the
„ON" position. Turn off the device by setting
the power switch to the „OFF" position. The
attachment remains hot for some time after
the device is turned off, allow it to cool down.
Danger of burns.
WORK WITH THE CORDLESS CUTTER
y If necessary, use a pencil to draw the shape that
you wish to cut out on to the plastic.
y Prior to work, allow the installed tool to heat
up to operating temperature (cutting line 30
seconds, blade 60 seconds).
y While working, guide the tool at a speed corre-
sponding to the melting speed, do not exert
excessive force.
y When using the blade, fibres may form along
the plane of the cut, the formation of which can
be prevented or limited by guiding the blade
slowly and enabling the polystyrene to melt
sufficiently, by cutting a thinner polystyrene
