3.2.3  Engage the seal mechanism by tightening the ‘nut’ of the central 
bolt assembly until the spring is no longer visible and the ‘nut’ is flush 
with the gland body.
.

3.2.1  Prepare the cable as per standard practice. Cut the strength 
member at ± 50 mm from the cable jacket. Feed the cable through the 
gel seal (apply some tape at the end of the loose tubes to ensure easy 
feeding through the gel seal).

3.2.2. Secure the metal bracket together with the 2 metal plates to the 
frame. Make sure that it is positioned at the center of the port. Do not 
tighten the screw completely. Secure the cable jacket with the hose 
clamp at the T-shape. Secure the strength member between the 2 metal 
plates and tighten the screw. Route the loose tubes as per standard 
practice.

3.1.2  Open the port. The cutting wire can be used. Make sure that 
the edges are free of burrs. Install the seal in the port, mark line always 
facing forward. The mark line on the gel seal should match with the 
mark line on the FIST-GCO2-FX drop port (The mark at the FIST-GCO2-
FX should be hidden when the seal is installed). Tighten the 2 screws 
and make sure they grip in the port.
