5. Using a utility knife, carefully remove any
residual plastic from the center conductor, if
necessary (see Figure 76).
6. Insert the end of the cable into the #2 end of
the ST-400EZ stripping tool (see Figure 77).
Then rotate the tool clockwise around the
cable until the tool turns easily. This removes
the cable jacket from the end of the cable,
exposing the braid and dielectric (see
Figure 78).
7. Using the DBT-02 tool, deburr and chamfer
the center conductor (see Figure 79). Avoid
nicking the aluminum tape covering the
dielectric.
