Procedure (cont'd)
9. Read through this step completely before
performing it, so that you are prepared to work
quickly to complete it before the adhesive
begins to harden.
a) Assemble needle tip and syringe. Remove the
plunger from a syringe. Squeeze a few drops of
OptiCure™ Adhesive into the back of the syringe
barrel as shown. Replace the plunger. Point the
opening upward and squeeze any air out of the
syringe barrel. (You may attach a needle tip
directly to the top of the OptiCure™ Adhesive
bottle.)
b) Squeeze a few drops of adhesive into the back
of the connector until the adhesive appears as
a small blue-colored dot on the front of the
connector.

c) Insert the stripped fiber into the back of the
connector, guiding it in until it stops. Slide the
crimp sleeve forward so that it captures the
flared aramid yarn and is completely seated
against the connector. Hold the connector
securely and place the larger-diameter section
of the crimp sleeve into the middle crimp nest
(0.178") and crimp it. Refer to connector
manufacturer's instructions to verify crimp sizes.
d) Place the smaller-diameter section of the crimp
sleeve into the smallest crimp nest (0.151") and
crimp. Refer to connector manufacturer's instruc-
tions to verify crimp sizes. Slide the strain relief
boot forward and position it around the back end
of the connector.
