6 Thread the prepared KS-connectors into the housing at the input and output port
locations 1 and 2 as shown in the illustration above. Make sure to tighten the
connector to the manufacturer’s recommended torque specification (typically 15
ft-lb to 25 ft-lb or 20.3 N-m to 33.9 N-m), but not to exceed 60 ft-lb (81.3 N-m).
7 Using a 3/16-in. hex head driver or 3/16-in. straight blade screwdriver, tighten
seizure screws A and C from 15 in-lb to 20 in-lb (1.7 N-m to 2.3 N-m) and seizure
screw B from 12 in-lb to 15 in-lb (1.4 N-m to 1.7 N-m). See the diagram in step 5
for seizure screw locations.

Important: Verify that the directional coupler (DC) on the faceplate is in the
correct orientation. The orientation depends on which port is the input port.
