INITIAL ASSEMBLY
Slide onto the cable the following items in this order (1) Nut (2) Washer

CRIMP CONNECTION TO CONTACTS (162 SERIES)
Using the recommended tools, crimp the contacts to the wires and
insert them in the connector as described in the Amform instructions,
which are supplied with each 162 series assembly.
Bring up clamp body taking care not to drag the braid forward. (If
necessary a small amount of thin tape may be used to hold the braid
in position whilst carrying out this operation). Screw the clamp body
onto the connector accessory thread, making sure that the connector
serrations engage with those on clamp body. Fold the braid out at
right angles to the cable and slide forward the braid clamp. Smooth
back braid onto the braid clamp and trim off the surplus. Slide up
gasket, washer, screw on nut and tighten.
