Follow these steps to connect the laser head:
1. Connect plumbing. As shown in Figure 4-6, push the barb fittings of water
hose connectors gently into the coolant in and coolant out ports by following
the flow path direction. Wetting the o-rings of the quick disconnect fittings
and receptacles can prevent the o-ring from being damaged. Make sure that
the quick disconnect fittings are locked by listening for a clicking sound.

2. Connect RF Cable: Connect the Q-switch RF cable to the BNC connector on
the laser head (see Figure 4-7). Once it is aligned, the connector can be
pushed in. Turn the locking ring of the connector in the clockwise direction
until it is locked.
