4. Unsolder the connections.
Note
Do not cut the connections to the probe leads, as this can render them too short to work
with later.
5. Remove the tension block, and save it for re-use in step 7.
6. Calculate the excess cable, then add back an allowance of 75 mm (3") for making the
connections:
For example, 1000 mm = excess
less 75 mm = allowance for connections
925 mm = excess cable to be removed 7.
7. Cut off the excess cable.
To prevent wires from being pulled through the cable bundle, secure each wire close to
where the outer black jacket stops prior to stripping cable insulation from it.
8. Remove approximately 75 mm (3") of cable jacket, shield, and filler strands.
9. Cut off the excess cable core, making sure the cut is clean and square
10.Replace the steel spacer and tension block, then shorten the leads to approximately 40 mm
(1.6").
