When designing an application system using actuators and controllers, incorrect wiring or connection of
each cable may cause unexpected problems such as a disconnected cable or poor contact, or even a
runaway system. This section explains prohibited handling of cables. Read the information carefully to
connect the cables properly.
x Do not cut any of the cables to reduce its length or reconnect the cut cable with other cable to extend the
wiring length or for any other purpose.
x If the cables cannot be mounted, connect them within the range in which the cables bend with their own
weight or in a big radius of a standing cable hose, etc, so that the cable loads will be reduced.
x Do not let the cable flex at a single point.
x Do not let the cable bend, kink or twist.
x Do not pull the cable with a strong force.
x Do not let the cable receive a turning force at a single point.
x Do not pinch, drop a heavy object onto or cut the cable.
