Instruction
1
Use the included Allen wrench or any 5mm or 3/16 Allen wrench to
loosen the two security screws near the bottom corners of the FSDC-H.
Use a flathead screwdriver to pry open the four hinged latches that
hold the FSDC-H closed.
Note: The accessory bag includes a closure cover stop, which can be
placed in the door hinge to hold the door securely open.
2
Locate the express port (oval port) on the
bottom of the FSDC. Use a 5 mm
(or 3/16”)
Allen wrench to remove the sealing
components.
Note: The express port can accommodate
cable with OD from 10 to 17.5 mm (0.394 to
0.689 inches).
Select the proper size rubber gasket from the
accessory kit based on the fiber cable
diameter. Use the smaller rubber gasket for
cables 10 to 12mm outer diameter and the
larger rubber gasket for cables 12.5 to
17.5mm.
3
Slit the rubber middle gasket apart on the
outsides.
Separate the pieces of the plastic inner
gasket.
Set these gaskets aside for later use.
