Assemble adjustable Jaws by orientating the octagonal sections, then slide jaws onto bar as shown
above. Alternatively, the jaws can be assembled at a 45° angle, which may be more convenient for
horizontally mated connectors. The Jaws will “ratchet” along the bar and lock into various positions.
Keep the jaws symmetrical about handle; push the jaws to the correct positions for the size of the
connector.
