If an M28 gland cap is used to close the gland when raising the gland and cable to the radio
unit, remove the gland cap from the gland at this point by unscrewing the cap.

Connect the cable to the port.

Screw the gland into the radio unit until there is full contact between the gland and the radio
unit.
Note
Before tightening the gland, make sure the gland is aligned with the taped hole in the
unit. Tightening the gland at an angle can ruin the thread on the gland and prevent
proper sealing of the interface.
Tighten the gland gently and make sure there is no resistance. If there is resistance,
stop immediately, and thread out the gland. Verify that the gland thread is not
damaged and tighten the gland again.
