Figure 58: Inserting the crimp ring into the crimp tool
c) Squeeze crimp tool handles together until it clicks, then releases.
Be careful not to touch the HCS fiber coating. Once the fiber
has been stripped, the coating will retain finger oils, which can
transfer to and damage gripper pads in the cleaver.
5. Cleave Fiber.
Make sure the appropriate cleave tool positioner plate is being used:
V-Pin.
Make sure the appropriate colored tension spring is being used:
Black.
Careful while handling the Cleave Tool. Handle as a precision device
and do not strike on hard surfaces or drop.
Keep the cleave tool clean and free from oils, including naturally
occurring finger oils. Gripper pads, diamond blade and anvil should
be cleaned after every 50 cleaves. Use the OFS Cleave Tool Cleaning
Kit — Part #P16247, available separately.
Do not use alcohol to clean the diamond blade or the gripper pads.
Alcohol will chemically react with the gripper pads and ruin them.
Do not insert metal tools near the diamond blade, as it is fragile and
may chip.
