    Slide the seal back along the wire in order to enable insulation removal.

  3. Remove the insulation.
  4. For sealed terminals only, align the seal with the end of the cable insulation.
  5. Position the strip in the terminal.

    For sealed terminals, position the strip and seal in the terminal.

  6. Hand crimp the core wings.
  7. Hand crimp the insulation wings.

    For sealed terminals, hand crimp the insulation wings around the seal and the cable.
