ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
RUBBER DUCT
PROTECTORS
• Inspect areas for safety hazards
• IF cable/cord has an end that is small enough to fit through the channel, insert end
into channel and push it through to the other side.
• IF cable/cord has an end that is too large to fit through the channel, a utility knife
can be used to carefully cut through the groove on the underside of the protector.
Then insert the cable/cord into the channel through the slit on the underside.
• Assemble sections by aligning protectors.
• Select models can be securely attached to one another with connector pegs. To do
so, simply align connector pegs with holes on the end of the cable protector and
push in firmly to secure them. Then
align second protector with pegs and
firmly push the two cable protectors
together (see illustration). Repeat this
procedure to connect as many rubber
duct protectors as needed.
• Test installation for intended use
• Periodically inspect installation
