PURPOSE:To facilitate 90 deg. bending of cable by inserting a plurality of arranged conductors into a through-hole made through a plate, by means of a plurality of pushers having gradually varying length, thereby varying the length of the conductors and then connecting the conductor with connectors and cutting the marginal length off. CONSTITUTION:A cable F is unstranded into N strands 7 which are arranged, with same intervals, in the grooves 8A-8N in interval keeping boards 8-1, 8-2 disposed at the opposite ends of a plate 1. The conductors 7 are then retained by a retaining board 3 having grooves in the lower face. A pusher 2 comprising pushing rods 2A-2N having gradually varying length is then pushed into a through-hole 4 in the plate 1 in order to differentiate the length of the strands 7. A connector 5 is then disposed oppositely to a connector set hole 9, the strands 7 are connected therewith and a cover 6 is set and then the strands 7 are cut off by means of a cutter 10 on the side of the interval keeping board 8-1 followed by removal of the pusher 2 and the retaining board 3. According to the constitution, the strands 7 can be cut appropriately and 90 deg. bending work of a cable F in the direction of an arrow A with respect to one connector 5 is facilitated.
