3. Screw the hooks along the marked line at the recommended spacing, for wood frame installation.
Screw the hooks into the ceiling supports or rafters the full length of the threads to prevent bending.
For metal frame installations, some support fabrication may be necessary in order to install
pulleys at the recommended spacing. For additional information and recommendations, contact a
Cumberland representative.
4. Ensure that the openings of the screw hooks point away from the direction of cable travel (E) when
the winch raises the feeder as shown in
. If the distance raised is greater than the distance
between drop spacings, stagger the hooks 3" (8 cm) to each side of the line to prevent the cable
clamps from catching on the pulleys.

5. Attach a board, capable of supporting the weight of the feeding system, to the ceiling a few feet from
the center of the feeder line.
6. Securely attach the winch to the board. The brake mechanism will protrude on one side.
