ABSTRACT:
A hand tool for assembling a compression type connector on the end portion of an associated insulated electrical cable has a pair of pistol grip handles pivotably moveable relative to each other. A pair of opposing cable retaining members pivotally supported on a tool holder carried by one of the handles releasably retains a cable and an associated connector engaged with the cable in general coaxial alignment with an axially elongated moveable plunger carried by the tool holder and also defines a 360.degree. annular bearing surface surrounding the cable and upon which the connector is seated when pressure is applied to the connector by the plunger. The plunger is connected to the other of the handles by a toggle link and is moved toward the bearing surface to apply axial pressure to the connector by operating the handles. The plunger is adjustable to adapt the tool to apply compression type connector fittings produced by various connector manufactures.
