Place the coppertop (bimetal) connector on the conductor. Make
sure the threaded hole in connector faces the apparatus bushing.
Crimp the connector in place using a tool and die
combination listed in Table 1 on page 3. Start crimping just
below the knurled line and rotate each successive crimp
to prevent bowing. Do not overlap crimps. Place as many
crimps on the connector as will fit. Smooth any sharp edges
on the crimp connector surface.
Clean excess inhibitor grease from coppertop connector by
wiping toward threaded eye.

Measure down from the top of the connector 7 1/2" .
Remove the insulation shield. Take care not to nick or gouge insulation.
Place a 1/8" bevel on the insulation to ease elbow installation.
