This lightweight (35 ounces) pocket size tool features SHURE-SQUEEZER™ DESIGN -
a proven ratchet and pawl mechanism which is designed to deliver proper
compression before the jaws will release.
It installs the complete range of " and " self-insulated and bare SHURE-SPLICER™
service connectors, in addition to one and two hole lugs, pin terminals, tees, splices
and the UB212 and UB214 street lighting tap, simply by removing and reversing the
coded upper die in the tool head.
Installation time is quicker because one stroke of the tool develops a full
circumferential compression.
The tool frame is precision cast of steel with plastisol cushioned handles.
Because the tool has relatively few moving parts, maintenance consists of an
occasional oiling of pivot and link pin areas.

To test for proper compression, place the
"tolerance gauge" between the dies and close
the tool. If the gauge is not held in place, the
tool is below tolerance and should be returned
to the factory for repair, Figure D.
