To ensure that the Badger 308 In-line connector assembly is properly
installed, the following installation steps have been created.

by squeezing the ribbed areas of the connector together
and pulling the cover straight off of the assembly. The
cover should be able to be removed from the connector
using very little force.

If any of the following conditions are observed, do not continue with
the installation of the connector assembly.

The seal is either damaged or missing

The cable is cut or nicked causing a potential tamper


Note: The waterproof connector should be installed on the
connectors whenever it is not fully assembled to protect the
connector from moisture and debris.

2.

To prevent the connectors from being installed incorrectly,
each connector has been keyed so that the two halves
can only go together when lined up correctly. Line up the
male and female halves of the connector and gently push
them together. While pushing the connector assemblies
together, the operator should hear two clicks, indicating
that the connectors are fully seated.

To disassemble a Badger in-line connector assembly, the following
steps have been provided.

1.

Using a flat blade screw driver, pry open the anti-tamper
collar. Discard the anti-tamper collar. It can only be used
one time.

2. Squeeze the connector on the two ribbed sides and pull

apart. The connector assembly disengages with minimal
force.

3.

Position the anti-tamper collar over the connector and
close it. The two tabs snap in place when the anti-tamper
collar is fully engaged.
