4.09Pivot the handle of the Fibrlok Assembly Tool down until it contacts the cap of the Fibrlok Splice. Squeeze the handle of the assembly tool as shown in order to close cap and actuate the splice. When possible, secure the tool to a work surface for added support. A snap sound will be heard when the splice is actuated.

4.10Remove the Fibrlok Splice from the assembly tool by first removing the fibers from the foam retention pads and then lifting the splice from the splice holding cradle.

Note:

In the event a splice must be refabricated, simply cut the

 

fibers at each end of the splice (this will remove 1-1/2" of

 

fiber from the loop) and re-splice per instructions. Splice

 

fabrication will require a new splice and a length of 2

 

inches on each fiber.

 

DO NOT REMOVE FIBERS AND RE-USE FIBRLOK SPLICES.

5.0Fiber Repositioning

5.01If high loss is observed after splice has been actuated, it is possible that the fiber ends are separated. In this case, lift the splice cap and reposition fiber ends, as instructed below.

NOTE: DO NOT COMPLETELY REMOVE FIBERS FROM FIBRLOK SPLICES.

5.02While the splice is in the splice holding cradle, insert the short prongs of the Fibrlok II Splice Cap Lifter into the two holes on the side of the splice. The cap lifter will be at an angle to the splice. The long prongs will be resting against the top of the splice cap.

5.03Slide the bottom of the cap lifter inward until it is in a vertical position, lifting the splice slightly out of the cradle.
