When you bend cables, bind them as shown in

Figure 96

. To avoid excessive stress causing cable

core break, do not tie up the cables in the bending area.

Figure 96 Binding cables where they must be bent

Route, bind, and attach excess cables for easy, safe maintenance activities and correct operations.

Do not tie power cords to slide rails.

When you connect a cable to an articulated part, for example, when you connect 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.
