ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a tool for use in inserting wires into an elongated connector cap and trimming the protruding ends. The tool includes a hinged head onto which the cap is removably placed and a base member having a ram driven wire inserter bracketed by wire guides. Wires are laced into slots in the guides and across side plates on the wire inserter. The cap bearing head is pivoted around to bring the cap into position between the wire guides and directly above the wire inserter. The ram drives the wire inserter up along both sides of the cap so that ribs on the side plates can force the wires into grooves on the cap. A shear blade simultaneously trims the wires on one side of the cap.
