Avoiding Tether Damage
The tether is the most vulnerable part of the NanoMag system. Tether damage is a serious matter but is
generally avoidable through proper handling. As a precaution, we recommend that anyone using or
handling the NanoMag system read and understand the Caring for the Connector section before working
with the system.
