TESTING PROCEDURE USING SLIP INDICATOR
13. Remove the 3mm screw and collar and then take off the knurled adaptor (figure 25)
14. Hold and line up the extension bar frame and screw in the x2 6mm cap head screws
using the 5mm ball driver (figure 26)
15. Set up and clamp the cable either using the supplied collar or without, this depends
on the type of fitting (figure 27, 28 & 29)

TEST SWAGE AS DESCRIBED USING MODEL 2000
16. Swage Joiner: Use of the extra cable clamp is required and also the 3 extra extension
bars. To fit the bars, remove the 3 6mm screws and thread on each bar until tight.
Replace the 3 6mm screws and tighten (figures 30, 31, 32, 33 & 34).
Please note the difference of the ends of the clamp as it is designed to locate slightly
over the end block.
REMOVAL / REPLACEMENT OF CABLE CLAMP
17. With the clamp in the open position, remove the 3 M6 bolts. The complete clamp
can now be interchanged with the same size or larger. (10mm, 12mm, 3/8", 1/2")
supplied separately. When using sizes other than 8mm the larger C washer and
knurled adapter are to be replaced. Sizes are stamped on each item.
REMOVAL / REPLACEMENT OF CABLE ASSEMBLY
18. The unit is supplied as standard with an 8mm clamp but this can be interchanged
with different sizes. (10mm, 12mm, 3/8" & ½"). To remove the clamp, unscrew the
x2 M8 cap head screws and open the top clamp, then remove the x3 M6 cap head
screws using the 5mm Allen key. Remove the complete clamp assembly and reverse
the procedure to replace, making sure the x3 M6 cap head screws are fully tightened
up. Also removal and replacement of the C washer in the end of the extension
assembly is required by unscrewing the x2 M6 cap head screws using the 5mm ball
driver. To replace, reverse the procedure and tighten up using the 5mm ball driver.
( Do not over tighten). The Knurled adaptor would also be required to be used with
the correct sized clamp and C washer supplied with the clamp.
GENERAL GUILDLINES FOR TESTING
For systems supplied in kit form with the swage components ready swaged and marked
with an "L" the swaged connections between the absorber and termination and cable
has been proof loaded to 15kN.
Therefore, the system can be directly installed on to the structure without the need
for proof testing onsite provided the maximum predicted end load is no greater than
15kN. If the predicted end load is greater than 15kN then a proof test to the maximum
predicted end load shall be carried out as described below.
For systems supplied as individual parts the swage connection will need to be completed
on site using the recommended hexagonal dies with a minimum of 3 swage bites. The
connection shall be proof tested to the maximum predicated end load before installation
of the system. After swaging it is recommended that the across flats dimension is
11.2mm. Any swages greater than 11.2mm must be rejected.
