To avoid out-of-round wear on the diamond
beads, both types of wire should be twisted in
an anticlockwise direction before connection.
Knuckle connection:
Twist inwards after pressing
Repair sleeve:
Twist inwards before pressing
The steel wire must be absolutely free from
plastic residues before pressing. Otherwise
the wire could be torn from the pressing unit.
Caution: Risk of cutting with
knife! Carry out cutting move-
ments so that no injuries can
occur!
Cutting with other tools is not recommended
since the wire ends may not be sufficiently
accurate and may be cut at an angle.
In the case of short wire contact lengths
special care is necessary since with such
applications the wire can very easily wear
out-of-round.
Do not apply too strong a tensile force to the
wire!
