6. Verify both wires are fully inserted into the gel-connector prior to crimping.
Important Use a crimping tool compatible with gel-connectors. Do not use a standard pliers for crimping
gel-connects. The crimping tool provides an even pressured crimp to make a secure connection. Apply
pressure for three seconds until the gel cap is fully crimped (collapsed) to allow time for the low viscosity
silicone-based gel to flow. If the silicone gel flows out of the crimped connector, avoid touching the gel.
Gel flowing from the connector provides environmental protection for the connection.
7. Insert the gel-connected wires into the threaded gray adapter plate hole.
8. Replace the strain relief and tighten until secure.
