Now look at the inner step on the terminal compared to the thickness of the cable jacket. The Jacket is thicker then this step making is painfully obvious that the cable is smaller then the 1/0 opening.<img src="http://www.knukonceptz.com/images/proto/IMG_1646.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Other images just show that the cable fits this step from various angles and on a second terminal. A trick when stripping the wire - Instead of pulling the jacket off all the way, remove it half way, then use the loose portion of the jacket like a handle and twist the strands while still on the cable. Twisting the strands reduces the area the loose strands take up. Yes it makes the cable more dense since you are compacting it to a smaller area. If you simply pull off the jacket you'll have a very loose bunch of strands and no matter what terminal or cable you use, you'll run into problems.<img src="http://www.knukonceptz.com/images/proto/IMG_1649.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://www.knukonceptz.com/images/proto/IMG_1650.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://www.knukonceptz.com/images/proto/IMG_1651.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />As for issues with a top staying on, removal of the top is achieved by squeezing it together, the feet then come free of the base. If you remove the top and flex it in the reverse direction you can widen the top, creating more tension on the feet of the top cover.</blockquote>
