Abstract
The present invention relates to a cutting device for use in cutting a collar which is mounted on a bolt in half, the cutting device comprising: ⋅ a mouth (16) for receiving the portion of the collar (28) to be cut; ⋅ a pair of jaws (17a, 17b) diametrically opposite one another and located within the mouth (16), each jaw (17a, 17b) being provided with a cutting blade (18), ⋅ a driver (22) for moving at least one jaw (17a) relative to the other (17b) such that the collar (28) can be cut in half by the action of the jaws (17a, 17b) moving towards one another, and ⋅ a guard (15) which, in use, prevents the cutting blade (18) from protruding beyond the mouth (16) and damaging a surface adjacent to the collar (28) to be cut in half.
