No need to cut on both sides, lay the bird on his right side, make a small incision between the last two ribs facing his rear end, cut the skin only, spread the incision, pierce the membrane and pull the memebrane apart as much as needed, the testicles are high on the back bone in front of the kidneys, twist them off with the tool provided in your kit or pull them off with long tweezers, don't try to cut them off, douse the incision with listerine and let him go. If the procedure is killing them you may be making your incision too deep and high up and hitting the artery that runs along the back bone, if there was a lot of blood and you could not see the testicles that is most likely what happened. The key is to never cut into the birds body, the scalpel is only for the intial incision in the skin, that is why 3 weeks old tops is when I make my capons, no meat on the ribs at that age. Very important to starve them for 24 hours, no food or water so that the organs are all shrunk.
