Final Connection Using a Torque Wrench
NOTE
Using a torque wrench guarantees that the connection is not too tight,
preventing possible connector damage. It also guarantees that all connections
are equally tight.
Use a torque wrench to make a final connection. Table 3-1 provides information on the
torque wrench recommended for use with this kit. Refer to Chapter 6‚"Replaceable Parts‚"
for ordering information.
1. Turn the connector nut. This may be possible to do by hand if one of the connectors is
fixed (as on a test port). In all situations, the use of an open-end wrench to keep the
body of the device from turning is recommended.
2. Position both wrenches within 90 degrees of each other before applying force. Wrenches
opposing each other (greater than 90 degrees apart) will cause a lifting action that can
misalign and stress the connections of the device involved This is especially true when
several devices are connected together. See Figure 3-4.
