Figure 55 Binding cables where they must be bent
• Route, bind, and attach excess cables for easy and safe maintenance and correct operation.
• Do not tie power cables to slide rails.
• When you connect a cable to an articulated part, such as connecting a grounding cable to a
cabinet door, leave enough slack in cables and make sure they are not stressed from any movement
of the part.
• Cables must be protected at points where they might rub or come in contact with sharp edges or
heated areas. Use high temperature cables near heat sources.
• Securely fasten cables and take adequate measures to prevent loose connections.
