Each EZ Connect option has a set of
common components, all of which are
necessary to install correctly to achieve IP67

STEP 2
–
Prepare Plastic Snap Cover
Slide the plastic snap cover over the body of
the FloppyFlex and place it a few inches
away from the assembly end to leave room
for next steps.
When installing the snap cover, directionality
matters. Pay attention to the instruction
printed on the bottom of the piece.
The snapping end of the cover is indicated
with an arrow and should point towards the
assembly end.
