Click on the dotted lines to open their the path and then use the cut path tool. If the lines do not exist you can trace over them to make the path.

Sometimes the outline tool does not produce closed paths and then the cut path does not work. Try and expand the text as big as possible before making the outlines. Then resize the outlines back to the smaller size.
