INSTALL CABLES
The High Boy frame includes a series of cables installed
to add diagonal bracing. When the frame is properly
anchored, these cables provide additional stability.
Part Number Quantity
AS1027 (cable clamp) Varies with length
AS1103 (cable thimble) Varies with length
GW1172 (turnbuckle) Varies with length
AR1050 (3/16" cable: bulk) Varies with length
AS2162 (anchor shackle)
Varies with length
ATTENTION:
All cabling must be installed as described in
the following steps.
Required tools:
• Tool to cut cable to required length
• Wrenches to install cable clamps and shackles
• Pliers and pry bar to adjust turnbuckles to tighten the
cables after installation
• Hammer and tape measure
• Gloves and eye protection when handling cable
Consult the following information to prepare and install the
different cable assemblies:
• Use the Side Profile diagram found in the Quick Start
Guide
for your building
and the Cable - Details diagram
to measure the cable length and to prepare it as
described in the diagram.
• When cutting the individual cable lengths, allow extra
cable so that it can wrap around the frame components
during the installation of the full cable assembly.
• Also, remember to account for the length of the
turnbuckle (fully opened) when cutting the cable.
• When attaching the turnbuckle to the two individual
lengths of cable to create a cable assembly, extend the
turnbuckle so that it is in its fully opened position.
• Do not cut the individual cables too long. Allow
approximately 10"-12" of cable when installing the
cable clamps.
• Install the U-bolt portion of each cable clamp
against
the dead section
of the cable section.
• Wrap cables around the lateral braces at the point
where the braces are secured to the straight tube of the
rafter assemblies. Consult the Cable - Details diagram.
•
No cable end is wrapped around any curved (or outer)
section of any rafter assembly.
• Consult Side Profile and Cable - Details diagrams.

for other anchor
shackle locations for
the longer High Boy
frames. (Details for
those connections
are not shown.)

HINT: To create cable assemblies without measuring each
cable location, consider the following procedure:
1. First determine which cable lengths are the same by
examining the Side Profile diagram for your shelter.
2. Next, measure the required cable assembly length for
the location and record or remember the dimensions.
NOTE: Turnbuckles are typically centered in the cable
assembly with cables of equal length attached to each
end of the turnbuckle.
Remember to account for the length of the turnbuckle
when fully opened and the cable needed to wrap
around the frame members.
