Installation Sequence
Prysmian BICON 378AB Multicleats (e.g. 378AB03) come with a disposable tensioning aid (introduced in response to customer requests to improve speed and tightness of installation). The adapter fits into the open end of the winding pin and used with a standard 13mm socket wrench to tighten the strap. Installer can then use the same 13mm socket to tighten the locking nut and finish the installation.
 |
| STEP 1
Fasten base to support with M10 fixings. Loop strap through base and around cables (2 loops for Standard, 3 loops for Heavy Duty). |
| STEP 2
Pull slack into the outer loop. Insert a split pin around the outer strap layer 10mm from the end. Attach the plastic shear torque adapter and a 13mm socket wrench. Rotate the key counterclockwise with the wrench to tension the strap until the adapter shears. |
| STEP 3
Remove the shear torque adapter and wrench. Swing the key over and engage in slots in clip. |
