To attach the transducer cable connector:
1. Slip the nut over the connector cable end. Push it past the connector and over
the cable.
2. Insert the wedge tool into the groove in the split of the split ring and slide the
wedge tool until its squared end is flush with the larger edge of the split ring.
3. Slip the split ring and wedge tool over the connector body until aligned with
the mounting groove on the connector.
4. Remove the wedge tool and seat the split ring in the mounting groove, mak-
ing sure the connector protrusion falls into the split.
5. Slip the nut forward until it stops. Twist until the protrusions on the inside of
the nut align with the grooves on the split ring.
6. Slip the nut forward and snap into place.
