15.5 Slide boot over crimp until boot is flush against the
connector.
Note: Jacketed boots appear the same in the photos but the
boots for all 3 types of connectors are different sizes and
cannot be interchanged.
16.0 Scribing
16.1 Position the scribe blade so the flat side of the blade
is resting on the bead of adhesive and the blade is
perpendicular to the fiber.
16.2 Score the fiber by gently sliding the blade across the
fiber just above the bead of adhesive. Scoring means
that you are making a small scratch on the outside of
the fiber.
IMPORTANT: The fiber should not break during this
step.
16.3 Pull the fiber straight away from the connector. Pull
along the axis of the fiber, not to one side or the other.
If the fiber does not pull away, score the fiber again.
16.4 Dispose of the scrap fiber in the designated container.
