ABSTRACT:
A portable cutter/crimper that can cut or crimp stranded cable for bundling logs. A pneumatic air bag is used to close the jaws of a pair of crimping arms which contain matching arcuate cut out portions for the cable connector to be crimped. Prior to operation, the crimping jaws are held open by a spring. The crimping arms also have cutting edges adjacent to the crimping jaws for cutting wire. A frame and handle are provided which have a trigger to initiate expansion of the air bag during operation. The force of the expanding air bag is transmitted to the crimping arms by two connecting arms rotably connected to the crimping arms. The assembly is partially housed in an aluminum housing, and is relatively light weight for easier field use.
