Tools and Parts Required for MX480 Router Grounding and Power Connections
To ground and provide power to the router, you need the following tools and parts:
•
Phillips (+) screwdrivers, numbers 1 and 2
•
2.5-mm flat-blade (–) screwdriver
•
7/16-in. (11 mm) hexagonal-head external drive socket wrench, or nut driver, with a
torque range between 23 lb-in. (2.6 Nm) and 25 lb-in. (2.8 Nm), for tightening nuts to
terminal studs on each power supply on a DC-powered router.
•
Wire cutters
•
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding wrist strap
CAUTION: The maximum torquerating of the terminal studs on the DC power
supply is 36 lb-in. (4.0 Nm). The terminal studs may be damaged if excessive
torque is applied. Use only a torque-controlled driver or socket wrench to
tighten nuts on the DC power supply terminal studs. Use an
appropriately-sized driver or socket wrench, with a maximum torquecapacity
