Greenlee ESG45LX120 - 45mm ACSR Cutter, with 120V Corded Adapter (Does Not Include Batteries/Charger)

The Greenlee ESG45LX is an inline cutting tool with 45mm jaw, designed specifically to cut ACSR, guy strand, ground rods and more. The Retraction Stop feature allows the operator to stop the ram retraction at any point simply by tapping the trigger, and then starting the next cutting cycle from that point saving time and energy. A two‑stage hydraulic system provides fast advance and power speeds and one trigger controls all tool functions.

The cutting head rotates 350 degrees and the tool will automatically retract when the cutting cycle is complete.
