3. Put the feeder into the notch of the cutter (EASIAX), leaving a length of four
sheath threads from the main blade. And then close the cutter handles. Since the
position of the cutter is determined according to the threads on the external
copper sheath of the feeder, the main blade should just be aligned to the crest at
the center of a thread of the feeder.
4. Turn the cutter in the direction as marked on the cutter till the handles are
completely closed and cut the internal and external copper conductors of the
feeder completely. At the same time, the auxiliary blade of the cutter cuts the
external plastic protection sheath of the feeder, as shown in Fig. 10.4-7.

part into the feeder till it contacts with the first corrugation of the feeder.
7. Firmly insert the tube expander of the cutter into the feeder and turn it left and
right to expand the external copper conductor of the feeder, so that it presses
against the back part of the feeder connector. This is shown in Fig. 10.4-9.
