INSTALL THE DIAGONAL GATE CABLE
The diagonal cable for the gate helps support the gate. Except for length, the cable assembly consists of
the same parts as the main frame cables and is assembled in the same manner.
Complete these steps:
1. Close the gate and align the security brackets on the ground post with the pipe fittings on the middle
horizontal pipes of the gate.
2. Measure the gate diagonally from the wheel corner to upper hinge corner to determine cable length.
ATTENTION:
Allow enough extra cable to attach each cable end to the gate and to the turnbuckle.
3. Cut a section of cable to the required length.
4. Cut the cable again so the turnbuckle is positioned as shown below when it is installed.
5. Secure the turnbuckle to the cables as previously described in these instructions.
6. Drill a 3/8" hole through the top and bottom frame pipes (horizontal) as shown approximately 1"-2" in
from the single-socket tee couplers.
7. Thread a cable end through both holes and secure the cable using two (2) cable clamps at each end. If
needed, refer to the previous cable instructions to properly attach the cable.
8. With the cable secured to the gate, tighten the turnbuckle to support the gate.
9. Continue by installing the main cover components.
NOTE:
Remember to install
the U-bolt portion of the cable
clamps over the "dead" or
short end of the cable when
securing the cable to the pipe
and turnbuckle.
