For a stable and sustainable installation /
A, Position all cables as much as possible in parallel to each other. The straighter the
installation, the better the performance and the lesser the wear.
B, Install the cable in some form of console (not included with the product) in order to
keep a straight and stable installation when the construction moves.
C, Use nuts with rounded heads on all cable attachments. This will allow the attachment
to roll against the nuts when the construction moves. Nuts with flat heads will not allow
any flexibility, whereby the cables will bend and risk breaking.
D, Do not tighten the nuts on any of the cable attachments. This will allow the cables
to move freely as the construction moves. Tightened nuts will not allow any flexibility,
whereby the cables will bend and risk breaking.
E, Avoid bending the cable as this will impair performance and increase wear on the
cable. If the cable despite this must be bent, the radius of the bend must not be less than
300 mm.
F, Place the actuator so that no mechanical impact is exerted on the pin. This would
involve a risk of the pin coming loose and falling out. The actuator should not be placed
in the vicinity of hot components either, such as the exhaust pipe.
