FIBER OPTIC TERMINATION INFORMATION.

Terminating the Fibers.
Use a termination kit, such as the Fotec fiber optic termination kit.
Plug oven in.
Place a piece of tape on the table to catch the fiber when cut.
Mix epoxy.
Put epoxy into the syringe.
Slide strain relief over fiber.
Strip fiber every 1/8 inch until you have stripped 1 inch off (yellow handled strippers).
Clean stripped fiber with alcohol wipe.
Take connector and fill barrel with epoxy until a blue dot appears on the end of the
ceramic part of the connector. Withdraw the syringe and fill the barrel.
Feed the fiber into the barrel by twisting the fiber in the rotational axis until the fiber
seats and some of the fiber comes out of the ceramic connector end.
Carefully insert the fiber connector into the oven with a pair of needle nose pliers.
Do not touch the side of the oven with the fiber. It will break.
