To route Cable C to the Front Offside Post:
1. Find Cable C, unscrew the Nut from the Threaded end, slip the Button end past the Retaining
Plate and into its slot on the Tie Plate, then route the Threaded end towards the Rear of the Lift.
Drawing shows Button end of Cable C in its slot on the
Tie Plate.
View is from Front of Lift looking back towards the
Power Post. Not to scale. Not all components shown.
2. Cable C needs to go around the Cable Sheaves at the Rear of the Lift and head back towards the
Front of the Lift, so route Cable C around the Cable Sheaves already in place, then pull the
Threaded end back towards the Tie Plate.
3. Put Rear Sheave C in place, then make sure Cable C is seated in Rear Sheave C.
4. Pull the Threaded end of Cable C all the way to the Front of the Lift, then push the Threaded end
into the Window, heading it towards the Front Offside Post.
5. Pull the Threaded end out of the Crosstube at the bottom of the Gusset at the Front Offside Post.
Let the Threaded end hang out of the Crosstube for now.
6. Put Front Sheave C into place, then make sure Cable C is seated in Front Sheave C.
7. Remove the Cable Lock Pin on the bottom of the Gusset on the Front Offside Post.
Keep it handy; you will be putting it back in place soon.
8. Route the Threaded end of Cable C
under the Gusset Sheave, then up towards the Top Cap at
the top of the Front Offside Post.
When you route it up, it
must be between the Gusset Sheave and the Slack Safety Sheave.
Important: When routing a Cable in its Post, the Cable must go
under the Gusset Sheave and
then, when it heads up towards the top of the Post, it must be on the side of the
Slack Safety Sheave. If the Cable is
not in this exact location , the Slack
Safeties will
not work correctly.
9. Push the Threaded end of Cable 3 through the Top Cap and
hand tighten it in place with the
Nut you removed just before routing the Cable.
You only want to hand tighten the Nut at this point so that there is a little play in the cabling. We
will securely tighten all four Nuts later in the installation procedure.
Note: The Threaded end of Cable C should go just a little bit through the Top Cap. If it is way
too long or way too short, you probably have the wrong Cable. If it is just a few inches
short, then the Piston on the Hydraulic Cylinder was probably not pulled out far enough.
10. Reinstall the Cable Lock Pin near the bottom of the Crosstube Gusset.
Cable C is now correctly routed to the Front Offside Post.
