Put sealant around the outside of the vent tube,
approximately 1/2 inch from end. Push the vent tube into
the hole, Figure 8. The sealant will seal the hole as you

5. Cut the cable wrap approximately four (4) inches away from point where it enters the cable-entry plate,
Figure 7, 7A. This allows proper sealant coverage. Do not damage cables when cutting away the cable wrap.

cable.) After cutting, wrap the outer cable wrap with electrical tape as shown, Figure 7, 7A. Push cable
through cable entry point on roof. Do not damage cable.
DO NOT APPLY SEALANT AT THIS TIME.
