How do I replace the blade on my HILTI NCT 85 C-22 cordless cable cutter?

[VanAlice]

To replace the bandsaw blade on your HILTI NCT 85 C-22 Copper/Aluminum cordless cable cutter, follow these steps: First, loosen the two screws securing the blade cover and then remove the cover. Next, unscrew the side handle by turning it counterclockwise. After that, rotate the clamping lever 180 degrees in the direction of rotation until it rests against the stop. Now, carefully insert the bandsaw blade into the cutting guide and then into the blade guides, ensuring the back of the blade touches the bearings at the base of the blade guides. Pay close attention to the direction of rotation indicators on both the blade and the bandsaw itself; they must align. Proceed to slip the bandsaw blade over both rollers, one at a time. Again, rotate the clamping lever 180 degrees in the direction of rotation until it is against the stop. Double-check that the bandsaw blade is correctly positioned over both rollers. Finally, reattach the blade cover, ensuring it's properly seated, and then reinstall the side handle.
