IMPORTANT
1. Check contents of package to ensure they are complete
and undamaged.
2. Check all components to ensure proper fit with cable
and/or mating products.
ASSEMBLE BAIL
1. Place hold--down bail as shown.
2. Pull hold--down bail up over the or top of the insulating
cap so that the eyebolt on the bail is directly
over the locator dimple.
3. Tighten down on insulating cap locator by turning
eyebolt in a clockwise direction. Adjust the nut on the
eyebolt until it allows the eyebolt to seat securely in the
locator. The nut should act as a stop to prevent the
eyebolt from applying excessive force on the
insulating cap. Once the nut is in final position, it will
not have to be readjusted when removing and
replacing the insulating cap.
3. Read entire installation instructions before starting.
4. Have all required tools at hand and maintain cleanliness
throughout the procedure.
