1. INTRODUCTION
Coaxial Cable Stripper Kits 603995–1 through –6 are
capable of cutting and stripping five different
sequential settings on three different areas of various
coaxial cable sizes; see Figure 2. This sheet covers
the cutting and stripping of the cable, the installation
of new cutting blades, cassettes, adjustment gauge,
V–blocks used for the various cable sizes, and
adjustments and troubleshooting. See Figure 1.
Dimensions on this do ument are in metri units
[with U.S. ustomary units in bra kets]. Figures
and illustrations are for referen e only and are
not drawn to s ale.
Do NOT use stripping tool on oaxial ables with
drain wires.
A 3-step tool is not re ommended for most styles
of RG-62 able, nor for many able styles with
ellular polyethylene or other soft diele tri s. Use
2-step tool instead.
Read these instructions thoroughly before using the
tool.
Reasons for revisions to this document are provided
in Section 9, REVISION SUMMARY.

2. DESCRIPTION
The Coaxial Cable Stripping Tool automatically strips
coaxial cable with jacket diameter of 2.54 to 7.62 mm
[.100 to .300 in.], with minor adjustments. Shipped
with the tool is one color–coded cassette, four
V–blocks and a hex wrench.
Kits come in two styles: a 2–step kit for 2–step
stripping, and a 3–step kit for either 2–step or 3–step
stripping. (the 3–step kit will accommodate both
2–step and 3–step cassettes.)
Cassettes have pre–set strip lengths. Refer to
instruction material for your connector to determine
your strip requirements, then refer to Figure 2 to find
which cassette meets your strip requirements.
Note the parts of the coaxial cable stripping tool in
Figure 3.

3. STRIPPING PROCEDURE
Follow these steps when stripping with the Coaxial
Cable Stripping Tool:
1. Adjust slide to position 4 or 5.
2. Open tool by rotating locking latch downward,
as shown in Figure 4.
3. Mark jacket of cable for center conductor length.
(If you have a simple wire cutter, ignore this
instruction. You can cut center conductor to length
after the strip or use conductor stop C–ST).
4. Hold the tool with the handle toward you and
insert cable from left into the groove position.
Close and latch tool. See Figures 5 and 6.

5. Push slide forward to appropriate start position
(see Figure 7). Make sure proper V–block is
installed.
6. Rotate tool around cable about five times (see
Figure 8). Push slide forward to next position in
sequence. Rotate tool again. Then push slide
forward to final position and rotate tool final five
times.
Figure 8
7. Move slide back one position. Then pull cable
out carefully while squeezing tool (see Figure 9). If
there is too much resistance or strip is imperfect,
refer to Section 4.
Figure 9
4. ADJUSTING THE TOOL
1. Inspect your first strip. Determine how deeply
each blade has scored the cable. See Figure 10 for
the proper direction you may have to adjust.
2. Adjust blade depth to match your cable by
turning hex screws at base of tool (see Figure 10).
If a blade is near its proper depth, turn its screw
approximately one-quarter turn (
"
90
_
). If a
blade is farther from its proper depth, turn its
screw approximately three-quarter (
"
270
_
)to
one complete turn (
"
360
_
).
Ad ust tool so that the appropriate slide
progression works correctly (see Figure 7);
develop your own 2- or 3- stage sliding
sequence.
3.
Try stripping again
per Section 3, following
Steps 1 through 7. If strip is still not acceptable,
adjust blades again, following instructions in Steps
1 and 2.

5. SOLUTIONS TO TYPICAL PROBLEMS
If braid is
twisting
too much, turn hex screw to
increase cut of braid–cutting blade one–quarter turn
CLOCKWISE (+90
_
), and
turn
hex screw for
jacket–cutting blade one quarter turn
COUNTERCLOCKWISE (–90
_
).
If, after repeated adjustment, most of the braid will not
cut properly, the blade set is probably worn out.
Reverse cassette to try new blade set.
With RG–174 or other very thin cable, very fine
adjustment is needed. Expect to make several small
adjustments, approximately one–twelfth turn (
"
30
_
),
to reach proper blade depth. Use a fresh blade set.
Use only high quality thin cable.

6.2. Changing V-Block
1. Open tool fully (Figure 12) until the springs
holding V–block release.
2. Pull out V–block and replace with selected
V–block.
With white V-block, you must position springs in
holes.

6.3. Cassettes
Each cassette contains 2 sets of cutting edges.
Cassette can be reversed each time a blade set
wears out. Numbers 1 and 2 are printed inside
cassette to determine usage.
A. To Change or Reverse Cassette
Move locking latch in direction of arrow, then push
cassette out of tool by inserting wrench through hole
in bottom of tool. Figure 13.

B. Step Strip With 2-Bladed Cassette
This procedure is recommended only in those cases
where the 3–step strip you require is not available in
one of the standard Series cassettes.
If your required strip length is as shown in Figure 14,
choose the 2–step cassette that matches your “C”
dimension.
Mark cable at length “A+B” from end. Figure 15.
1. Open tool, insert cable from left, and locate
mark on cable over the right hand blade.
2. Close and latch tool and strip cable according to
Section 3.

Mark Exposed Dielectric Here
An adjustment of the tool might be necessary. A
correct strip is shown in Figure 16.
3. Mark exposed dielectric at length “A” from end.
4. Remove dielectric at the mark with a simple wire
stripping plier. See Figure 17.
Figure 17
The slide is a unique and important part of the
stripper. The slide allows you to ease the blades into
the cable, reducing the friction on the braid and
dielectric as you strip.
Always use your slide when you strip.
Adjust your tool for the appropriate slide progression.
If your cable size does not appear in Figure 7,
develop your own 2–or 3–stage sliding sequence.
Always step back to position 1 on slide before
pulling out of tool.
7. ADJUSTMENT GAUGE
1. Open the tool by rotating locking latch
downward as shown in Figure 18.
Figure 18
2. Push the cassette out of the tool by inserting the
wrench, or appropriate object, through hole in the
bottom of the tool. See Figure 19. Turn blade
adjustment screws counterclockwise until they are
fully retracted. See Figure 10.

gauge so that the markings, which correspond to the
cable type to be stripped, are above the adjustment
screws; see Figure 20. Close the tool.
