Solder
— Assemble insulator and contact onto cable dielectric and
center conductor. If insulator is not flush against solder ferrule due to
dielectric extrusion, retrim dielectric.
— Solder contact to center conductor by heating rear of contact
(do not feed additional solder through inspection hole in contact).

— Insert cable assembly into body assembly. Tighten to 90–100
inch-ounces torque. (Hold cable/hardware assembly stationary
and rotate body when tightening.)
— Place insulator in body cavity, and press cap into place.
Properly assembled cap will be slightly below end of body assembly.
— Insert cable assembly into body assembly. Tighten to 90–100
inch-ounces torque. (Hold cable/hardware assembly stationary
and rotate body when tightening.)
— Solder center conductor into notch in rear of contact with
.025–.032" diameter chisel-tip soldering iron.
— Solder should cover center conductor, but not extend over top
of notch in contact, or exceed contact diameter.
— Trim cable per trim code below; tin end of center conductor.
— Slide backnut over cable. Slide solder ferrule over cable until it
stops against cable jacket.
— Solder cable jacket to ferrule.
