Control cables are designed to be non-repairable. Do
not perform any repairs to this control cable.
Cables are designed to be contaminant resistant; not
contaminant proof.
The usable stroke must be centered within the available
travel.
The swivel angle must be centered within the available
swivel angle.
The minimum bend radius is 6".
Control cables are lubricated for the life of the control
cable. Do not remove the seals or lubricate the control
cable.
Inspections
Observe the following hints when performing inspections
on the control cables:
A cable must be replaced whenever:
• excessive free play is felt at the control even after all cable
connections have been verified as in good working order.
• visual inspection shows chafing, breakage or bent, loose or
worn parts.
• evidence of moisture is found inside (or control cable has
frozen).
• a gradual or sudden decrease in the stroke (travel) length of
the control cable has been detected.
• a gradual or sudden increase in the no-load (cable free and
unattached) friction of a control cable has been detected.
Correct routing of the control cable whenever:
• misalignment, unacceptable high internal friction due to
bends below minimum radius of 6" or malfunction of sliding
elements has been detected.
• the usable stroke is not centered within the available travel.
