cable path is essential for a proper operating system. Keep bends in the cable path to a
minimum and be as generous as possible. Under no circumstances should any bend be
tighter than an 8" radius. Protect the cable from heat above 225 degrees F. and avoid
hot areas such as exhaust pipes, etc. Protect the cable from physical damages such as
pinching or crushing, and do not use cable supports, which may crush or deform the
cable. Allow room for flexing where the cable is attached to moving parts of the
equipment, so that the cable is neither kinked nor stretched.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE FOR A HYDRAULIC CONTROL CABLE TO
HYDRAULIC VALVE WITH BONNET CONNECTION KIT
1. Turn .750-16 UNF jam nut entire length of threaded hub back over the cable. Place
Flange onto Sleeve (large end first) and flange onto sleeve and turn flange adaptor /
flange / sleeve assembly entire length of threaded hub back over the cable.
2. Turn .250-28 UNF jam nut onto cable threaded rod until it bottoms.
3. Place clevis of threaded rod and bottom against jam nut. Turn other .250-28 UNF jam
nut onto threaded rod until it bottoms against clevis. Align clevis so it will mate with
spool terminal eye and secure jam nut against clevis.
4. Slide the clevis onto terminal eye on spool and align the holes. Insert clevis pin through
yoke and terminal eye holes and secure clevis pin with retaining ring.
5. Now, with the cable attached to the valve and control head, turn the flange adapter /
flange / sleeve assembly back onto the threaded hub until it is flush with the valve face.
When turning on the flange adapter / flange / sleeve assembly, make sure that the
control head remains in the neutral position.
6. Tighten the .750-16 UNF jam nut against the sleeve and lock in position.
7. Bring flange into position on bolt assembly to valve housing.
