Greenlee 759 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size cable can the Greenlee 759 ratchet cutter actually cut?
The Greenlee 759 is rated for aluminum up to 750 kcmil, copper up to 500 kcmil, and communication cable up to 1-1/8 inch diameter. Note the copper limit is lower than the aluminum limit, so a 750 kcmil copper feeder is beyond this tool. If you are cutting large copper service conductors regularly, you need a cutter rated for copper at that size.
2) Will the 759 cut ACSR or steel-core messenger wire?
No. The 759's cutting range covers aluminum, copper and communication cable only. Steel-reinforced conductors like ACSR and guy or messenger strand will damage the hardened steel blades. Use a cutter specifically rated for ACSR or hard-wire strand for that work.
3) Can you stop a cut partway through with the Greenlee 759, or do you have to finish the stroke?
You can stop partway. The 759 has a blade release that opens the blades mid-cut, so if the cable shifts or you grabbed the wrong conductor you can back out and reposition without ratcheting all the way through.
4) Is the Greenlee 759 a one-handed cutter for working inside a panel?
Yes. The 759 is a compact single-speed ratchet cutter built for one-handed operation, which is why it suits panel interiors, congested gutter space and conduit runs where you need the other hand to steady the cable. The compact body is the trade-off: it keeps the jaw capacity at 500 kcmil copper rather than the larger capacities you get from a two-handed or hydraulic cutter.
5) Should I use a ratchet cable cutter like the 759 or a hydraulic cutter?
A ratchet cutter is the right call for occasional cuts, tight spaces and work where you do not want to haul a pump or battery head. The 759 is single-speed ratchet with hardened steel blades and cuts up to 750 kcmil aluminum. A hydraulic head makes more sense when you are cutting large copper all day or need capacity past this tool's 500 kcmil copper rating.
6) Is the Greenlee 759 an insulated tool for live work?
The 759 is a mechanical hardened steel ratchet cable cutter and carries no insulation rating in its specification. Do not treat it as a 1000V insulated tool. For energized work, specify a cutter that is explicitly rated and marked for it.
7) What is the correct part number and origin for the Greenlee compact ratchet cable cutter?
Order it as Greenlee 759. That is the manufacturer part number for the compact ratchet cable cutter, and it is made in Japan.
