2. Place the connector and cable inside the tool
locator, making sure that:
— the center conductor of center contact enters the
locator hole
— the connector is seated squarely on the locator
— if crimping a panel jack to the cable, the sides of
the panel jack should align with the tool jaws as
shown in Figure 9
3. Support the cable-and-connector assembly, and
squeeze the tool handles to complete the crimp as
shown in Figure 9.
6.2. For Connectors with Retractable Collars
Connectors with sliding coupling nuts (shown in Figure
10) require Special Die Set 312962-1 which is not
included in the kit and MUST be ordered separately.
Proceed as follows:
1. Slide the nut then the connector body, flange end
first, onto the cable.
2. Place the connector body and cable inside the
tool locator, making sure that the center conductor
enters the locator hole, and that the coupling nut is
positioned above the tool head.
