• Quarterly Inspection: Check screw tightness, discoloration, or cracks.

• Cleaning: Use dry cloth only; avoid solvents.

• Retighten: In high‑vibration areas, retorque screws annually.

• Replacement: Replace if damaged, corroded, or aged.

9. Safety Instructions

• Install/service only by qualified electrical personnel.

• De‑energize I/O base before wiring or replacement.

• Use solid copper wire only; do not mix wire sizes in one clamp.

• Do not exceed rated voltage/current.

• Keep terminals dry and free of conductive debris.

• CA Prop 65 Warning: Contains lead; may cause cancer/reproductive harm.

10. Troubleshooting

Intermittent Signal / Loose Connection

• Retighten screw to specified torque.

• Check wire strip length (6–7 mm) and no stray strands.

• Verify full wire insertion into clamp.

Cannot Insert Wire

• Fully loosen screw; check for debris/damage in terminal.

• Confirm wire gauge is AWG14–18 (1.5–2.5 mm²).

Busbar Will Not Snap On

• Align with base slots correctly.

• Remove debris from base connectors or busbar.
