Strip the Cable
When you cut cable sections, make them long enough to route from
one tap to the next with sufficient length so that the bend radius is not
less than:
•
76.2 mm (3 in.) for wiring external to enclosures
•
38.1 mm (1.5 in.) for wiring inside enclosures
1. Verify that you have the proper memory blade holder installed
for the type of cable you are using (PVC-CL2 or FEP-CL2P). If
you need to change the memory blade holder, see Appendix B.
2. Straighten out the end of the cable.
3. Insert the cable into the cable strip tool’s cutting chamber so that
extra cable, approximately 25.4 mm (1 in.), extends beyond the
edge of the tool.
ATTENTION
Be certain to perform the calibration procedure the
first time you use the tool and every time you change
the blade or both memory cartridges. Refer to
Appendix B for the proper calibration procedure.
