1. Prepare the connector and the cable according
to the instructions packaged with the connector.
2. Slide the center contact onto the center
conductor of the cable; then insert the contact
assembly into the center contact crimp section of
the die. See Figure 2.
3. Crimp the center contact by holding the cable in
place; then close the tool handles until the ratchet
releases.
1. Insert the crimped center contact into the
connector body until the cable dielectric butts
against the dielectric inside of the connector body.
The flared braid will then fit around the support
sleeve of the connector body.
2. Slide the ferrule forward over the braid until the
ferrule butts against the shoulder on the
connector body.
3. Place the ferrule on the appropriate anvil of the
die assembly so that the shoulder on the connector
body is butted against the die. See Figure 4.
4. Holding the assembly in place, close the tool
handles until the ratchet releases.
i
Make sure that the flange on the end of the
center contact butts against the crimping die. See
Figure 3.

Inspection of the crimping dies should be made on a
regular basis to ensure that they have not become
worn or damaged. Inspect the crimp sections for
flattened, chipped, worn, or broken areas. If damage
or abnormal wear is evident, the dies must be
replaced. Refer to Section 6, PARTS
