🔹 How to Use

🔹 Step 1: Securely grip the sealant or adhesive cartridge with one hand, keeping the nozzle or threaded tip exposed.
🔹 Step 2: Position the cutter’s opening over the cartridge tip where you want to make the cut—typically at the nozzle or threaded section.
🔹 Step 3: Gently squeeze the handles together to activate the blade and slice cleanly through the plastic.
🔹 Step 4: Ensure the nozzle or tip is cut to the desired angle or opening size. Repeat the process if further trimming is needed.
🔹 Step 5: Once finished, wipe the cutter if necessary and return it to your toolbox for safe storage.
