Naudojimo instrukcijos

These pliers are designed for cutting, stripping, and crimping unshielded ribbon telephone cables and various Western plugs.

1. Cutting and Stripping Cables

The tool features integrated cutting and stripping functions for efficient cable preparation.

• For Ribbon Telephone Cables: Use the length cutter and dismantling knife for ribbon cables of 6 mm (1/4-inch) and 12 mm (1/2-inch) lengths.
• For Round Cables: An additional stripping device is provided for round cables. Carefully insert the cable into the appropriate slot and rotate the tool around the cable to strip the insulation without damaging the conductors.

Figure 2: Demonstrates the stripping function for round cables. The orange cable is inserted into the dedicated stripping slot on the pliers.

Figure 3: Illustrates the result of stripping a cable using the pliers. The outer jacket of the orange cable is removed, exposing the internal conductors.

2. Crimping Western Plugs

The pliers are designed for crimping 6-pole and 8-pole Western plugs.

• Palaikomi kištukų tipai:
  • RJ 11/12 (3/8-inch or 9.65 mm width)
  • RJ 45 (15/32-inch or 11.68 mm width)
• Suspaudimo procesas:
  1. Prepare the cable by stripping the outer jacket to the appropriate length, exposing the individual wires.
  2. Arrange the wires according to the desired wiring standard (e.g., T568A or T568B for RJ45).
  3. Insert the prepared wires into the Western plug, ensuring each wire reaches the end of its channel.
  4. Place the loaded plug into the corresponding crimping die on the pliers (marked 6P for 6-pole or 8P for 8-pole).
  5. Squeeze the handles firmly and completely until the integral lock (self-releasing mechanism) disengages. This ensures a complete and high-quality crimp.
  6. Release the handles and remove the crimped plug.
