Cables and Connectors

Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension
required to seat or unseat the cables during insertion or removal from the connector.
Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. In all cases, avoid bending, twisting,
or tearing the cables, and ensure that the cables are routed in such a way that they
cannot be caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced. Handle flex cables
with extreme care; they can tear easily.
CAUTION: When servicing the ArmadaStation or Armada MiniStation, ensure that cables
are placed in their proper location during the reassembly process. Improper cable
placement can damage the ArmadaStation or Armada MiniStation.

Plastic Parts

Plastic parts can be damaged by the use of excessive force during disassembly and
reassembly. When handling the plastic parts, use care. Use a bezel removal tool to
separate plastic components. Apply pressure only at the points designated in the
maintenance instructions.
