Replacing Cable

To Remove Cable From Drum
1. Pull out excess cable from drum allowing
access to cable bracket.
2. Loosen screws on back of drum that fas-
ten cable clamps (Figure 17) and back
plate against back wall of drum.
3. Pull end of old cable from drum and dis-
card.
To Install Replacement Cable
1. To make cable installation easier, com-
pletely uncoil new cable before proceed-
ing. Use caution when removing the cable
from the package. The cable is under ten-
sion and could strike the user. Adding a 30
degree bend about 4" (100mm) from the
drum end of cable will facilitate it entering
the drum.
2. Insert about 24" (0.8m) of cable through
the guide tube into the drum. Cable
should coil into the drum in a count er-
clockwise direction (Figure 18).

3. Reach inside the drum and maneuver
end of cable so that it is between the
cable clamp and back plate. The end of
the cable should extend at least 3"
(75mm) past the clamp.
4. Retighten the screws to clamp the cable
against the back plate and back wall of
the drum.
5. Feed cable into drum.
