Video tutorial on how to cut a single ear or double ear crimp style hose clamp. I do show a couple different methods in this tutorial, each method will be dependant if you have the tools on hand. If you plan on using the high speed rotary tool method, DO NOT USE it on flammable fluids, this does create some heat, as well as sparks which could cause a fire. These crimp clamps are only intended to be for one time usage, once cut they cannot be removed again. They can be found on a variety of applications such as vacuum lines, coolant lines, fuel lines, hydraulic lines, washer fluid lines, etc.

Tools/Supplies Needed:
-bullnose pliers/end-cutting pliers
-side cutters/diagonal cutting pliers
-high speed rotary tool/Dremel
-arbor with abrasive cutting disk
-safety glasses
-gloves

Procedure:
-in order to remove this style of clamp, it does have to be cut to release the tension and be remove
-the ear can be mechanically cut by using the specific tool intended for these clamps or using a pair of bullnose pliers/end-cutting pliers or side cutters/diagonal cutting pliers can be used to cut the ear
-if you are limited for room, do not have leverage required to cut it, or are having trouble cutting it in general you can use a high speed rotary tool with an abrasive cutting disk
-I do not recommend using the high speed rotary tool with an abrasive cutting disk on flammable fluids
-be sure to wear safety glasses when using this method, gloves are also great protection as well
-once the ear is cut using either method, even a double ear crimp clamp only requires one ear to be cut, the clamp can be spread open
-you can either bend the clamp open and remove the clamp, or slide the clamp back
-now you can remove the hose off the fitting
