Abstract:
A cutting device comprising:a cutting head, having a cutter;a foot actuator, having a first hydraulic cylinder coupled thereto and the foot actuator configured to actuate the first hydraulic cylinder;a housing supporting the cutting head and a second hydraulic cylinder, the second hydraulic cylinder being coupled to the cutting head, moveable from a first position to a second position, and configured to actuate the cutter, the housing configured to support a second hydraulic cylinder biasing spring configured to bias the second hydraulic cylinder to one of the first position and the second position;a hydraulic hose coupled to the first hydraulic cylinder on a first end and coupled to the second hydraulic cylinder on a second end, the hydraulic hose communicating hydraulic fluid between the first and second hydraulic cylinders,wherein the foot actuator receives a force input, the force input being transmitted to the first hydraulic cylinder thereby causing hydraulic fluid to flow through the hydraulic hose and causing movement in the second hydraulic cylinder the second hydraulic cylinder transmitting a force to the cutting device.
