CAUTION
• If cable wires are connected without using
connecting sleeves, their contact area becomes
reduced, or corrosion develops on the outer surfaces
of the wires (copper wires) over a long time. This may
cause an increase of resistance (reduction of passing
current) and consequently may result in a fire.
4 Using a crimping tool, compress the two points and flip it
over and compress another two points in the same location.
• The compression dimension should be 8.0.
