6b. With a clock-wise motion like that of tightening a screw driver,

twist the cable installation tool while holding the crimped end of

the cable up into the sheave pocket. The cable will pop loose

from the tool and pop up through the sheave pocket as shown in

this cut away view.

The cable MUST feed in from the top of the “B” exactly as

shown in steps 2 - 3 in order to function properly. Failure to

install the cable correctly as shown can cause wearing of the

cable for which it is not designed which can result in failure of

the cable. Failure of the cable while the lift is raised will result

in a sudden and rapid lowering of the lift and the load possibly

resulting in serious property damage and/or serious bodily injury.

WARNING

6a. Insert the crimped end of the cable into the sheave pocket at

the end nearest the end of the “B” section as shown.

5. Use the special tool provided to insert the crimped end of the

cable into the TOP end of the “B” section as shown in this cut away

view. If your “B” section is the factory original and not a replace-

ment, the top is the painted end and the bottom has several inches

of unfinished surface. If both ends of your “B” section are painted it

is either a replacement or you are working on the “F” section of an

extension 186-00. In either of these cases wear marks on the sec-

tion should give you an indication of which end is the top.

There should not be

more than 1” of cable

extending beyond tool.
