Step 2 - Install Steering Cable
i. Either port can be used for steering cable entry. The most convenient
for the installation should be selected. The spent cable tube attaches to
the opposite port. Steering direction can be reversed either by
reversing the motor brush leads or by software in the course computer
setup.
ii. Install steering cable into drive port. Guide inner cable into port and
exert moderate force using 2 hands to drive cable around the driving
hub. This action will back drive the unit and the inner cable will
appear out of the opposite port. To complete the cable installation, the
cable outer jacket will enter the port and butt against the drive housing.
This will enable the insertion of the lock bolt.
iii.
Note that undue force required to drive the inner cable around the
driving hub may be caused by the leading edge of the inner cable
gouging into outer face of the nylon guide. Remove the cable and
inspect the leading edge for sharp edges, if possible, twist the cable and
re insert with sharp edge towards inside of radius or using a burr type
tool remove the sharp edges.
