Step 1 How to Strip Other Cables

Clean the cables by removing all foreign materials and plugs.
Because cables will be mechanically granulated, all brackets or similar components must be removed to prevent the damage of the granulators.
Some plugs can be reused (mainly the bigger flat ones). Clarify this with the local cable recycler/granulator.
