• Position the center conductor at the second line on the stripper/activator tool and mark the

cable jacket with your thumbnail at the base of the activator; see Figure 33.

• Carefully place the connector on the cable and push the connector until it meets the thum-

bnail mark. If the connector is pushed too far onto the cable, it may not properly connect to

its mate connector.

7. Remove the connector cap and insert the connector into the activator tool (the center conductor fits

into the hole in the crank). Turn the handle to tighten the activator until it stops, then back off the

activator and remove the connector; see Figure 34.

8. Check the installation by pulling on the connector. The connector should not come off.

If the connector is not being connected immediately, put the cap back on it.

Caution - A poor connection may result if the connector is removed from the cable

once it has been pushed onto the cable.
