Cable Control Installation Continued...

5. Choose a mounting location which is convenient and comfortable for the operator

and provides adequate clearance for the control lever movement. Check the under-

side of the cab for reinforcement members, air lines, wiring harnesses, and linkages

before cutting into the floor. Be sure the location chosen allows the cable to be led

easily away from the control. Reversing control direction usually is not necessary. In

most cases, the direction of the lever movement for a given valve function can be

changed by switching the hydraulic lines at the valve. If this is not an option, control

operation can be changed simply by turning the cable controller 180º.

6. Cut a hole for the control cables to pass through.

7. If using the control mount provided, mark and drill four (4) 3/8” diameter holes for the

3/8” x 1-1/2” cap screws provided.

Cable Connections:

1. Remove the screw from

the cable controller

where the cable end

will install. Do not

remove the other

screws passing through

the cable control hous-

ing.

2. Screw the hex thread-

ed cable end into the

cable controller end.

3. Install the control head

end of the cable into

the cable controller.

Reinstall the cable controller screw passing through the groove in the end of the cable

housing.

4. Check the control for free movement and correct valve control.

5. To connect the cable to the valve handle, start be removing the mounting nut from the

cable assembly. (Large nut in the photo above).

6. Install the threaded portion of the cable assembly through the bulkhead weldment and

replace the mounting nut.

7. Install the clevis provided to the cable

end. The cable end should be parallel

to the bulkhead weldment.

8. Located the clevis on the control valve

handle. If a hole is not provided in the

control valve handle for the clevis, drill a

.375” diameter hole through the valve

handle as illustrated. Install pin and

keeper included with clevis.

9. Do a final check of the controls for free

movement and correct valve control.
