Recommended splicing method - Crimp (For 10-22 AWG (0.35-5.0mm) Diameter Wire to Like Wire Diameter)
Note: Cut and splice one circuit at a time noting the original wire to connector pin locations. This will avoid miss-connections.
1. Disconnect battery ground cable.
2. Strip 6.35mm (1/4 in) of insulation from each wire end, taking care not to nick or cut wire strands.
3. Install heat shrink tubing.
NOTE: Use heat shrinkable tubes marked with ES-1 (16-26 AWG/0.13-1.0mm) or ES-2 (10-18 AWG/0.75-5.0mm) to seal wire splice.
4. Select appropriate wire splice for the wires to be spliced.
5. Identify the appropriate crimping chamber on the Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper by matching the wire size on the dies with the wire size stamped on the butt splice.
NOTE: Rotunda 164-R5901 Pro-Crimper is the only tool that can be used with these splices.
6. Center one end of the wire splice in the appropriate crimping chamber.
7. If visible, be sure to place the brazed seam toward the indenter.
8. Insert stripped wire into the barrel.
9. Holding the wire in place, barrel squeeze tool handles appropriate ratchet releases.
10. Repeating steps 5-7, crimp the other half of the splice.
NOTE: It is recommended to apply solder at the ends of the barrel.
