15.10 Installing clamps by Nicopress pliers
Procedure of clamp installation by Nicopress pliers is shown on Fig. 15-9.
First pull the cable through the clamp, make a loop around the thumb and pull the cable end
back through the clamp. The cable end should overlap by about 32 mm (1.25 in) from the
clamp after its puling through. The overlapping will ensure that the cable end will not be pulled
back into the clamp during the clamp squeezing. Before actual squeezing the clamp it is also
necessary to verify which cable terminal will be used, whether thimble or suspension eye,
because some terminals must be put into the cable before actual clamp squeezing.
