and ensure foreign matter does not get into any cooling
vents. Always avoid dropping or shocking these compo-
nents. See your CCU manual for complete instructions.

Locating Faulty Components

If you have a known working camera head, it can be
used as a test device to isolate a faulty component in the
system. It can be plugged directly into the CCU system
connector to test the CCU. It can be plugged into the hub
end of the System Cable or into the push-rod connector
inside the drum in order to test each link in the series.
Try to isolate the fault to one of the major components:
• camera head
• reel/frame
• systems cable
• CCU
Contact Ridge Tool Technical Services Department at
800-519-3456 for assistance. We will establish a plan of
action to get your system back on line.
For additional troubleshooting suggestions, please see
the Troubleshooting Chart on page 20 .
The system is designed to let you troubleshoot faulty
components at the job site. In the unlikely event that you
encounter problems with your system, you may still be
able to finish the job. If you isolate the problem to the hub,
you can disconnect the pushrod at the dry-end, remove all
the cable from the drum and pay out all the cable in a con-
venient location. Disconnect the system cable at the
back side of the hub and connect the dry-end pushrod
connector to the system cable connector. Although this
may be inconvenient, it will allow you to finish the job.
