Step 3A: Assembling the Cable Extremity: Ref.  PN 7000 (03)

Ÿ

of the cable extremity. 

Ÿ

Open the strands of the wire.

Ÿ

Insert the core of the cable in the poke pin. The core is the straight 
strand, all other strands are twisted. 

Ÿ

With a hollow Center-punch hammer the poke pin deep inside the 
housing of the cable extremity 

Ÿ

Tighten the connector of the extremity to the housing of the cable 
extremity.

Ÿ

Connect the cable extremity to the mounting bracket (for the upper 
ladder rung) by a locking pin.

Ÿ

Insert the pin ring in to the locking pin to lock.

Open up the cable roll and then insert the cable in to the housing

STEP 3B: Wire Crimping Assembly PN 7000 (14):

Ÿ

Insert 2 ferrules in the wire. 

Ÿ

Insert the wire in heat shrinking tube.

Ÿ

Loop the wire across the Stainless Steel Thimble.

Ÿ

Insert the end of the wire back into the Ferrule.

Ÿ

Crimp  the  Ferrule  using  a  20  Ton  Hydraulic  Crimping  head  and 

2

300mm  crimping dies.

Ÿ

Ensure that the first ferrule is as close as possible to the thimble, the 
next ferrule should be 50mm apart from the first one.

Ÿ

Insert the aluminum cap in the free end of wire and crimp it.

Ÿ

Cover the entire assembly up to the bottom edge of the ferrule with a 
heat Shrinkable tube.

Ÿ

Shrink the tube with a hot air gun.

STEP 3C: Cable Swaging

Ÿ

Insert the cable into the swage tube

Ÿ

The swage tube has markings to identify exact positions of crimping

Ÿ

Place the swage tube on the hex loc die of a hydraulic crimping 
tool(130kN capacity).

Ÿ

Ensure that the mark on the swage tube is in the  center of the die.

Ÿ

Operate the machine to start the swaging operation until the green 
light is on.

Ÿ

Repeat the process for all markings(5 times minimum).

STEP 3D: U bolt & Thimble

Ÿ

Loop the Cable across the thimble and ensure at least 300mm of the 
cable is overlapping.

Ÿ

Next, fasten the stainless steel U bolts (Part of Ref PN 6000 (01)) 
approximately 50 mm apart.

Ÿ

If the cable is in excess make a loop and tie the loop with cable ties.

Ÿ

If it is necessary to cut the cable, seal the loose end of the cable by 
adhesive tape after cutting it.

SHOCK ABSORBER & 
Ref. PN 7000

CABLE TERMINATION

Ÿ

Connect the shock absorber to top mounting bracket by inserting 
the fastener and the nylon spacer so as to pass through mounting 
bracket and eye of energy absorber.

Ÿ

The spacer ensure the correct position of energy absorber.

Ÿ

Ensure that the energy absorber is fitted with red arrow on label 
pointing down wards

Ÿ

Connect the end extremity to energy absorber by inserting 
fastener through eye of energy absorber.

Step 02 - 

Installation of Shock Absorber 

A  suitable  cable  termination  may  be  selected  according  to  the  site 
condition u-bolts and thimbles are only Allowed at bottom termination 
according to EN353.1:2014
