properly.
5. Use the cartridge tool to hold the cartridge assembly, while turning the shield cup (and shield retainer for
200 Amp parts) onto the cartridge assembly. For 300 Amp parts turn the shield retainer onto the shield cup
now. When this group is fully assembled, the shield should protrude from the front of the shield cup or shield
retainer. Without this protrusion the shield cup is not properly tightened onto the cartridge assembly.
