[2.75 in.] opening.
NOTE
Make sure that the shoulders of the conforming block
bear on the bottom surface of the tool holder BEFORE
applying pressure in the vise.
7. Tighten the vise to force the conforming block into
the slot. Continue to tighten until the legs of the tool
holder prevent further movement of the vise jaws.

8.3. To Make 1.57 mm [.062 in.] Bends on RG-405 Cable
It is recommended that a special kit be used to make
1.57 mm [.062 in.] bends on RG-405 cable. Kit
220224-2 includes a limiting pin, a 90° bend tool body
assembly, a 90° bend segment, and a conforming
block. The figures referenced for the 6.35 mm
[.250 in.] and 3.18 mm [.125 in.] bends will assist in
making the 1.57 mm [.062 in.] bends. These steps are
recommended:
1. Make the 3.18 mm [.125 in.] radial bend as
described in Paragraph 8.1, and remove the plug
from the tool holder.
2. Replace the 3.18 mm [.125 in.] bend segment
with the special 1.57 mm [.062 in.] bend segment,
which is a part of Kit 220224-2.
3. Re-attach the plug to the dummy jack of the tool
holder.
4. Place the special 1.57 mm [.062 in.] conforming
block over the cable with the tongue of the block in
the tool holder slot. The conforming block is part of
Kit 220224-2.
5. Insert the limiting pin and slide the block against
the tool holder.
6. Place the assembly in a vise with a 69.85 mm
[2.75 in.] opening.
7. Remove the assembly from the vise, and
unscrew the plug from the fixture.
8. Remove the assembly from the vise, and
