Cable Terminations

  1. Cable must be threaded at least ½ inch (12.7mm) into termination points; at headplate (A) and frame/carriage (B).
  2. Certain models are now equipped with a bayonet portal to assist checking proper thread engagement. To do so, attempt to pass a 7mm Allen wrench through the portal, if it goes through, more threads are needed to meet the minimum requirement.
  3. When proper thread engagement is reached, tighten jam nut to 20-25 FT-LBS (27.2 - 34.0 Nm) using a 24mm wrench.
