  3. Connect the Wellhead and logger to the Vented Cable:

Only tighten the coupling while holding the Vented Cable and Wellhead still. Tighten the coupling until it seats. There should be no threads showing at the Wellhead connection. Do not twist the Vented Cable or Wellhead.

Follow the same procedure when connecting the logger to the Vented Cable.

See page 6 for instructions to install the Support Hanger Bracket, as shown at right.
