• Heat the SolderSleeves until they have shrunk fully and
the solder rings have melted and flowed. Keep the heat
source moving to avoid charring the connector.
• Carefully remove assembly from heat. Hold connector
and cable steady and allow to cool. Moving solder joint
when hot can weaken the connection.
• Push the taped rope end toward the
connector to remove any slack in
the rope.
• Heat shrink 1/4 inch (6 mm) of the tube onto the
connector, moving the heat source around the tube to
heat evenly.
• Leave a small gap (1/16 inch) (1.5 mm) between the tube
and the ribbed section of the connector.
• Do not overheat. The tube may slip off of the connector
if it is overheated.
• Allow to cool before proceeding.
• Slide an SCT labeled heat-shrinkable tube over the assembly.
