item A) and the other on the crimped cable loop (figures
1/3, item H) through a quick link connector (figures 1/3,
item J) provided with the INRS shock absorber (figures
1/3, reference D).
Installing on the tensioner
The following assembly procedure refers to Figure 20
on page 11:
a� Locate the quick link connector (figures 1/3, item
J) in one of the two INRS shock absorber (item 10)
mooring loops, tighten the connector lock nut
(item 11) and fully tighten using an open ended
spanner.
b. Fit the quick link connector (figures 1/3, item J)
attached to the INRS shock absorber (figures 1/3,
