ALWAYS REMEMBER!
Before using your cables, make
•
sure that the connector end of your
instrument has a greased o-ring that
is in good condition (not cracked or
sheared).
Before using your cables, make
•
sure that each cable end contains
a gasket. This ensures a secure
connection with the instrument.
Cables can be sheared off by heavy
•
machinery or the careless use of
cutting tools. Pay attention!
