WARNING: PROPER CABLE INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
IS CRITICAL TO LIFE OF CABLE
4) AREAS TO PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO ARE:
1. Do not bend cable wire.
2. Make certain the cable is not in a bind when the deck is raised either manually
or when mowing.
3. Leave enough slack where the cable is tied to mower to keep out of the belts
for the deck to raise and lower without straining the cable.
4. Avoid direct heat on cable, do not route near mu
ffl
er
5. Maintain recommended bend radius of 6 inches for all bends.
3) MAINTAINING THE CABLE:
1. Be sure the rubber boot is in place to keep dirt and water out of cable.
2) PROPER PEDAL HEIGHT:
1. Adjust pedal height so pedal bottoms out with full pressure to
prevent cable from carrying full weight of operator. Start with
cable
fi
tting as shown - adjust pedal end to raise pedal, adjust
fl
ap end to lower pedal. Verify pedal height with
fl
ap in
balance (half open) position.
DO NOT BEND
1) Improper cable routing WILL cause failure, usually within
the
fi
rst month of use. The
fi
rst 1/2 inch of cable conduit
(black
fl
exible part) must be straight in line with the end
fi
tting.
Cable wire near ball must not be bent during installation.
