f) The cable loop should now be placed into the rollers of the rotating quadrant.
This will direct the cable loop vertically upwards to the fixed quadrant roller
mounted on the frame (Fig 4). Assemble the detachable segments by ensuring
the locating lugs seat properly and secure with retaining toggle clamps.
g) The cable loop should then be di-
rected over the rollers on the fixed
quadrant and through the duct clamp
on the frame. Reassemble the quadrant
ensuring the locating lugs seat properly
and secure the retaining toggle clamps.
h) Ensure the innerduct is pushed right through the duct clamp and is touching
the Fixed Quadrant eliminating possible cable flex. (Fig 4)
I) Clamp the cable into the Tornado unit as normal with the 1-1/2 turns of the
screw. Slowly start to push the cable into the Fleeter Basket (No Air required)
making sure it is rotating in a clockwise direction “Slower speeds are recom-
mended for this application” Care MUST be taken by the operator during this
procedure.

cable when running though) pass the cable through the Tornado Blowing unit
and continue to blow cable as normal.
