<p>The tool comprises a cable cutter assembly (16) having cable insulation slitting blades (96) spaced transversely of the slitting direction, the assembly (16) being movable towards a cable supporting surface (24) to drive the blades (96) into the insulation of a cable (not shown) thereon, movement of the cutter assembly (16) relative to, and lengthwise of, the cable causing the cable to be slit. <??>For producing complex cable slitting patterns, the blades (96) which are spaced both transversely of, and longitudinally of, the supporting surface (24), which is elongate, are carried in a module (82) exchangeably secured in the cutter assembly (16), and to ensure that the slits made in the cable are of predetermined length, a cable stop (30) and a cable clamping assembly (14) are provided. </p> |
