To open tool squeeze handles hard or push release lever (Fig-
ure 1) forward while squeezing handles to relieve tension.
Figure 1
1. Place the sleeve on the cable and make a loop around
the item to which you are securing the cable.
2. Next, insert cable end through the sleeve and at least
1/8" or more beyond (Figure 6).
3. After swaging, excess cable may be cut off with our
FELCO C7 cutters.
4. While holding sleeve in place swage one compression.
Move over and swage (second compression). Two com-
pressions are required. The tool won't release until com-
pression is complete.
5. Check sleeve for proper after swage diameter with
gauge provided (Figure 7). The clamping action of the
ratchet allows the sleeve to be held by the tool before
completing the swage. This allows for the user to adjust
the position of the sleeve on the cable.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

Place sleeve to be compressed in cavity of swaging tool.
Length of cable equal to the cable diameter should extend
beyond length of sleeve to achieve maximum holding. (See
arrow in Figure 6)
Keep jaws of swaging tool at right angles to the sleeve to
be compressed, making sure the sleeve is aligned in the jaw
cavity. Close tool completely or use the clamping action of the
ratchet to allow the sleeve to be held by the tool before com-
pleting the swage. This allows the user to adjust the position
of the sleeve on the cable. Tool handles will not open until the
handles close completely.
