Installing the
tower
Follow the procedure below to install the tower pivot cable.
1. One end of the tower pivot cable has a loop. Insert the retainer pin (AA5)
through the hole in the upper pulley mount (AA9) and pass it through the cable
loop.
2. Place the M12 washer (AA7) over the end of the retainer pin and secure it with
the cotter pin (AA6).
3. Route the free end of the cable around the lower pulley and over the top of the
upper pulley. Refer to the directional arrows in the illustration above.
4. Pass the cable below the winch drum and wind it two or three times around the
winch drum.
5. Pass the free end of the cable through the hole in the winch drum. Wind the
cable once around the bearing drum axle.
6. Loosen the two nuts on the cable retainer (AA) and insert the free end of the
cable through the retainer so that approximately 1 cm (3/8 in.) of cable extends
beyond the retainer. Torque the nuts to 3 Nm (20-30 in.lbs.).
7. Rotate the winch counter-clockwise to take up any slack in the cable.
