compression ring of the coupling set over
the strands and copper tape layer. Check
the order and orientation of the nut and
ring against Figure 22 on page 36.
15. Unwrap the material double tape layer
back to the compression ring. Place the
compression cone between the filler core
and the copper strands as shown in Figure

it is flush with the end of the filler core.
Neatly form the copper strands back over
the cone in their original order.
