STEP F2: Install and inspect backnut (12)

Tighten the backnut (12) until a seal is formed around the cable. Use a wrench/spanner to grip the middlenut (11). While preventing the 

middlenut (11) turning, use a second wrench to apply one further full turn to the backnut (12).  Use the middlenut guide as an indication 

that the backnut is in the correct position to suit cable diameter. A diameter scale is printed into the border of this document to assist in 

this process.

STEP F3: Install Body Energised End Cap (13)

Ensure keyways are aligned and engage body to end cap (13) by hand. Hold the centrenut (6) and hand tighten the end cap (13).

Using a wrench to ensure that the centrenut (6) cannot turn, use a second wrench to ensure the end cap (13) is wrench tight
