Check the fit

The separator establishes the path for the next tool. Compare the row, the backing and your cutter before trimming so the direction of the cut follows the prepared line.

When to choose it

Choose the 10-517 when you need to open the pile and establish the row before cutting the backing. The rounded end is documented for cut pile and the flat end for loop pile, so choose by carpet construction first.
