HOW TO HANDLE AN ANODE CAP
1. Do not use sharp objects which may cause damage to the surface of the
anode cap.
2. To avoid damaging the anode cap, do not squeeze the rubber covering too
hard. A material fitting called a shatter-hook terminal is built into the rubber.
3. Do not force turn the foot of the rubber cover. This may cause the shatter-hook
terminal to protrude and damage the rubber.
