Feed the Kevlar yarn through the
opening.
15.
Remove the dust protection cap (e)
from the body of the connector (d).
Note:It is easier to maneuver the Kevlar
threads through with twisting
movements.
16.
Thread the connector body (d) with
the ferrule on to the fiber as far as it
will go.
Note:If the fiber catches while feeding it
through, a short piece needs to be cut
off the end of the fiber with a side
