If the buffer tube is placed in the wrong groove, the tool may not
cut the tube completely or fibers may be damaged.
5.3 Press the halves together and tighten the thumb
screw. Make sure that the tube is completely seated in the
groove.
5.4 Pull the tool slowly and steadily along the buffer tube
in the direction of the arrows indicated on the tool for a
distance of approximately 60 cm (24 in.) (Figure 5).
5.5 Once you have opened the tube for a length of 60 cm
(24 in.), stop and:
a) Carefully separate the split tube halves from the
fibers.
Caution: Fibers will be hanging loosely during the
remainder of the access procedure. Use great care to avoid
snagging or breaking the fibers.
b) Loop the split buffer tube halves around a finger to
secure the uncut tube ahead of the tool (Figure 6).

buffer tube halves (Figure 7). If the buffer tube is Gel-free,
carefully cut out the water-block yarns. If filling compound
is present, wipe the filling compound from the exposed
fibers with Fiber-clean wipes.The fiber is now ready to be
cut at its proper end and spliced / connectorized to another
fiber.
