Torque Properly
Over torquing connectors is destructive; it may damage the
connector center pin. Never use pliers to tighten connectors. For
other connectors, use the correct torque wrench.
Cover the Connectors
Put ESD-safe dust caps on the connector after use.
Store Properly
Never store adapters loose in a box, in a desk, or in a drawer.

Connection Procedure
Table 3-1 below lists the Anritsu Company torque wrench and open end
wrench part numbers for different connectors.
1. Hold torque wrench at the end.
2. Rotate only the connector nut when you tighten the connector. Use
an open-end wrench to keep the body of the connector from
turning.
