3. Installation Instructions
The Akasa cable combs are designed for quick and easy installation. They can be installed even after your PC system has been built.
- Identify Cable Type: Determine the type of cable you wish to organize (e.g., 24-pin ATX, 8-pin CPU/PCIe, 6-pin PCIe).
- Select Correct Comb: Choose the corresponding cable comb size from the kit (24-pin, 8-pin, or 6-pin). Ensure the comb matches the number of individual wires in the cable.
- Align Cables: Neatly align the individual wires of the cable. For best results, ensure they are parallel and untwisted.
- Snap into Place: Gently press the cable comb over the aligned wires until it snaps securely into place. The rounded-edge design helps protect cable sleeving.
- Repeat: Install additional combs along the length of the cable as needed to achieve the desired level of organization and aesthetic.

4. Operating Instructions
Once installed, the Akasa cable combs passively manage your PC cables. No further operation is required. They maintain the separation and alignment of individual wires, contributing to a neat internal PC environment and potentially improving airflow.
5. Maintenance
The Akasa cable combs require minimal maintenance.
- Cleaning: If dust accumulates, gently wipe the combs with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Inspection: Periodically check the combs to ensure they remain securely in place and are not damaged.
6. Troubleshooting
- Combs do not fit: Ensure you are using the correct comb size for your cable (24-pin, 8-pin, or 6-pin). The combs are designed for 3mm diameter cables. If your cables are significantly thicker or thinner, the combs may not fit properly.
- Combs are loose: If a comb feels loose, ensure all individual wires are properly seated within its channels. If the cable diameter is too small for the comb, it may not hold securely.
- Combs break during installation: While made from durable ABS, excessive force can cause breakage. Apply gentle, even pressure when snapping combs into place.
