INTRODUCTION
TheDanielsSCTPSeries PneumaticSafe-T-Cable®application toolis designedto crimpferrules, and
tension/cut the cable in accordance with the performance requirements of SAE specification AS4536*.
The application tool installs Safe-T-Cable®kits identified in SAE specifications AS3509*, AS3510* and
AS3511*.
The following steps are important:
1. Proper toolsetting(section1.0)
2. Proper cable installation (section 2.0)
3. Proper loading and use of the application tool (section 3.0)
4. Verification of proper application (section 4.0)

1.0 TOOLMAINTENANCEANDVERIFICATIONOFTOOLSETTINGS
1.1 CheckingIndenterSettings withtheDanielsSCT-TB1TorqueVerification Block
1.1.1. Indentersettings shouldbecheckedperiodicallyand mustbe checkedafter thenoseassemblyhas
beenremoved or changed.
1.1.2. Thread the cable into the left swivel and through the right swivel, holding the lever in the
home position as shown in figure 1. If the lever is not kept in the home position the results
may be adversely affected. Terminate the cable per section 3.0.
1.1.3. Applyapproximately2lbforcetothecablewithyourfinger(orusetheDanielsSCTD013Retention
Tester)at theline marked "TESTAREA".If thecabletouches eithertheside orbottom surfaceof
thetestarea, remove thecablefrom the block.Properly terminate anothercable,holding the tool
perpendicularto thecableand makingcertainthatthereis nomorethan 11/2 inchofslack.

1.3. RELEASING THE INDENTER
1.3.1. The SCTP series pneumatic Safe-T-Cable®tool has an internal cycle control feature which
prevents the indenter from returning if the crimping cycle is not completed. Therefore, if the
air pressure is insufficient or the tool is adjusted too tight, the tool may not complete the
crimp cycle and the indenter may not release the ferrule.
1.3.2. To release the indenter, loosen the two 8-32 socket head cap screws which retain the nose (see
figure3).Activatethetool.
1.3.3. After the indenter has returned, tighten the 8-32 socket head cap screws as described in 1.2.4.
above.
1.4 ADJUSTING THE TENSION
1.4.1. Adjust cable tension using a screwdriver as shown in figure 5.

1.5.2. Remove debris by gently scraping or brushing the crimp cavity. Blow any remaining debris
from the cavity with air.
1.5.3. Coatthe cavity with a light film of any lightweight synthetic or petroleum based oil after
the cavity has been thoroughly cleaned.
2.0PROPERCABLE INSTALLATION
2.1 Various examples of Safe-T-Cable®installation are shown in figures 6 through 8. Although
all possible combinations are not shown, three basic rules apply:
A) It is recommended that Safe-T-Cable®be installed in such a manner that any tendency
for a fastener to loosen will be counteracted by an additional tension on the cable. Sharp
turnsin excessof135°shouldbe avoided.Installed Safe-T-Cable®shouldproduce apositive
orneutralpullonthefastener.
B) Safe-T-Cable®should be installed in two or three bolt patterns. Two bolt patterns being
preferred when Safe-T-Cable®is applied to an even number of fasteners.
C) Maximum spanof Safe-T-Cable®shallbesixinchesfromendto end.

theferrule bypulling thecable away fromthe endof thecartridge.
CAUTION: DO NOT RELEASE THE FREE END OF THE CABLE UNTIL IT HAS BEEN INSERTED
THROUGH THE NOSE.
3.5. Insert the free end of the cable through the nose as shown in figure 11. Slide the tool along the
cable to the desired position.
3.6 Rotate the cable tensioning wheel with the cable entry slot up to the position shown in figure
12. Position the nose such that the ferrule is pressed squarely against the fastener. Make
certain that the ferrule is fully seated in the nose.
3.7 Insert the free end of the cable into the cable entry slot of the cable tensioning wheel. When
the free end of the cable appears at the bottom of the wheel, grab the cable and pull slack from
thecable.Do notleavemore than11/2" ofslackin thecable(figure 13).
