Insert the protective cover into the lock housing during use of the device.

Check the control cable and source assembly connectors using the NO GO gauge according to the daily inspection section.

Remove the protective rubber cap from the remote control connector.

IMPORTANT WARNING

The control cable connector is a made from hardened steel and should never be left unprotected or forced into connection with the source assembly as this could damage the connector overtime leading to possible breakage during use.

ALWAYS use the protective end-cover when remote controls are not connected to the exposure device and ALWAYS manually move the sleeve of the female connector of the source assembly to the OPEN position when connecting and disconnecting the control cable from the source assembly.

Slide the remote control connector assembly’s collar back and open the jaws to expose the male portion of the control cable connector (i.e. the ball-end on the control cable connector).

Press back the spring-loaded locking pin of the source assembly connector with a thumb-nail and engage the male and female portions of the connectors.

Release the locking pin of the source assembly connector and check that the connection is secure.

Use the NO GO gauge to check the gap between the joined connectors during the daily inspection.
