13.30 Lay the splice on top of the pocket that it will snap into. Place the
fibers around the perimeter of the tray under the tray tabs. If 900
micron fiber is being spliced to 250 micron fiber, place the 900
micron fiber into the tray before placing splice in position. This
removes torsional load from the 900 micron fiber.
13.31 Prior to placing the splice into the pocket, observe how the splice lays in its relaxed state. Rotate the splice
through the smallest possible angle. Snap splice into pocket cap side down.
13.32 For remaining fibers, repeat steps 13.27 through 13.31. Fill
pockets in order.
13.33 Install and close tray cover making sure that all fibers are properly
stored under the tray tabs.
13.35 Slide the post of the tray being added into the hole in the level
arm on the previously installed tray. (Back view shown).
13.34 Snap tray cover shut.
