OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the handtool in your hand, so that the movable handle (item 2) may be actuated by your thumb.
2. Place Clincher connector on the anvil (item 23a).
3. Place cable well positioned in the connector.
4. Close handtool by moving the handle (item 2) and hold Clincher connector with cable in place.
5. When the handtool is completely closed, the movable handle (item 2) may be returned to its standing position.
6. Repeat procedure 1-4 when a Clincher connector is used with more than 4 positions.

Note:
The handtool has stops, which prevents opening the tool before the clinch action is complete. Should it
be necessary, the stop can be released by turning the ratchet wheel at the back of the tool in the direction
indicated by the two yellow arrows. Keep the movable handle under light pressure during this operation.
