Over time, o-rings and gaskets may become dry, cracked, or
otherwise damaged. Replace instrument o-rings and cable gaskets
periodically to ensure a long life for your cable and instrument.

1. Remove and discard the old o-ring on the connector end of

the instrument.

2. Rub a small amount of grease between your fingers and

apply it to the new o-ring. Avoid getting dust or dirt on the
o-ring. Install the new o-ring on your instrument.

3. Use a pointed, but not sharp object, such as the end of a

paper clip, to remove the gaskets from each end of the cable.

4. Insert the new gaskets into the cable connector. Push them in

with a blunt object, such as the rounded end of a paper clip.
Make sure that the flat side of the gasket aligns with the flat
side inside the connector.
DO NOT LUBRICATE THE GASKET!
