Step-by-step procedure to operate Presto hot wire bottle cutter

Using a hot wire bottle cutter is an easy process. Thus, you can easily follow a step-by-step procedure to operate this quality testing equipment.

First of all plug in the main cable lead in the socket present at the back of the machine.
Then plug the machine into a 5 amp, 220 Volts AC & turn the machine ON.
Place the specimen accurately on the holding fixture of the machine & insert the bottleneck into the bottle holder. Adjust the height of the bottle holder according to the diameter of the bottle with the help of the height-adjusting knob.
Now adjust the length of the fixture with the help of the rotating knob given on the fixture.
After adjusting the length now adjust the width of the fixture according to the specimen diameter with the help of rotating knobs on the fixture.
Now place the wires exactly on the marking on the bottle made during the preparation of the specimen.
Make sure that the wires are placed perfectly straight and follow the measurements of the measuring scale provided on the frame.
If the wires are placed tilted or in the wrong position the bottle will not be cut perfectly straight.
