when
the
device
is
extended

become
pinched
when
the

is
retracted.
Route
the
cable
away
from
places
where
it
can
be
snagged
by
other
devices
in
the
rack.
Do
not
overtighten
the
cable
straps
or
bend
the
cables
to
a
radius
of
less
than
38
mm
(1.5
in.).
Do
not
put
excess
weight
on
the
cable
at
the
connection
point.
Make
sure
that
the
cable
is
well
supported.
