How to Separate a Connection

NOTE Do not turn the device body. Only turn the connector nut. Damage to the center conductor
can occur if the device body is rotated.
1. Use an open-end wrench to prevent the device body from turning.
2. Use another open-end wrench to loosen the connector nut.
3. Complete the disconnection by hand, turning only the connector nut.
4. Pull the connectors straight apart without twisting, rocking, or bending either of the connectors.
NOTE If disconnecting an airline and the airline center conductor does not disengage from the
device center conductor, gently pull the center conductors apart and then push the airline
center conductor back inside the outer conductor of the airline.
