These instructions explain how to terminate an 
LMR-400-75 RF cable with an EZ-400-FMH-75 
“F” connector using the tools from the 
TK-400EZ-75 tool kit. For more detailed 
instructions, refer to the Times Microwave 
website (

a. Using the CCT-01 cutting tool, cut the cable 

evenly (see Figure 49).

b. Since cutting the cable can deform the end, 

gently round the end of the cable using a pair 

of needle-nose pliers (see Figure 50). Also 

make sure the center conductor is centered 

within the cable.

c. Place the heat shrink sleeve and metal ferrule 

onto the cable (see Figure 51).

d. Insert the end of the cable into the #1 end of 

the ST-400EZ stripping tool (see Figure 52). 

Then rotate the tool clockwise around the 

cable until the tool turns easily. The end of 

the cable should now be stripped to expose 

the center conductor.
