I contacted Hager technical support once and they said that it was fine to cut or even extend the fly leads providing it was the same csa.
 
I tend to use blade crimps, for this and other applications. Any reason I should move to bootlace style crimps, as that tends to be the popular choice ?

I use both, depending what I've got with me at the time.
Either way is better than twisting and doubling over, which, apparently, is perfectably acceptable o_O
 
I use the same type as telectrix. Cheap and cheerful but does the job. Been using for a while and still does a good job. At that price when it does go t*ts up or I loose them I can just buy another.
 
I got a tray of non insulated ferrules. Use them on all flex connections, especially handy when doing ch wiring centres. Pretty sure time taken to put ferrule on is countered by much quicker termination.
Biggest fly lead I've encountered on rcbo so far is 4mm, but only had a need to fit rcbos upto 32A.
