9. Lay out the two 162¼" (5/16") Inner Cables,
then attach to the loops at the center of the arms
by using the ⅜" Quick Links. These two cables
will attach between opposite arms on either side of
the Tree.
10. Attach the two Inner Turnbuckle Cables from Step 8, between opposite arms using the ⅜" Quick Link on one end and
the Turnbuckle on the other. Reverse the location of the Turnbuckle on the opposite side. (See diagram above)
Tighten the Turnbuckles enough to remove the slack of all four inner cables.
NOTE: DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN ANY TURNBUCKLES UNTIL ALL CABLES ARE ATTACHED!
NOTE: WHEN TIGHTENING CABLES, BE SURE TO TIGHTEN TURNBUCKLES
UNIFORMLY TO PREVENT WARPING OR BOWING OF THE ARMS.
11. Use the same procedures as in Step 9 & 10
to assemble the Outer Cables.
Lay out the two 302" (5/16") Outer Cables, then
attach to the loops at the ends of the arms by
using the ⅜" Quick Links.
These two cables will attach between opposite
arms on either side of the Tree as before.
12. Lay out the two 280½” (5/16") Outer Turnbuckle Cables
and connect one ½" Turnbuckle to the loop in the end of
each cable.
Attach these two cables between opposite arms using a
Quick Link on one end and the Turnbuckle on the other.
Position the outer Turnbuckle opposite to the Turnbuckle
of the Inner Cables. (See above)
After all of the cables are in place, the top Turnbuckles
may need to be tightened again.
