4.18. Install the Tube Lift Cable
1. Wrap the cable (1) around the bottom side of the winch drum with three complete wraps around the drum
when conveyor is in transport position (see
Figure 32
).
Failure to follow could result in conveyor collapse and cause serious injury.
2. Thread cable onto drum and secure with spool anchor. Nuts must be on the outside of the winch drum to
prevent damage to the cable (see
Figure 33
).
3. Run the cable towards the spout and thread it through the track shoe pulley.
4. Run the cable from the track shoe pulley towards the hopper and stop at the cable attach (3).
5. Loop the cable under and around the cable attach and secure it with two 1/4" cable clamps (2).
6. Trim excess cable.
7. Test the function of the winch by lifting the conveyor to its raised position.
Crushing/impact hazard
Do not stand under the conveyor while testing the winch. The conveyor may drop
unexpectedly. Ensure all equipment and personnel are clear of the conveyor while testing
the winch.
The tube lift components may become damaged.
Stop the test if anything should slide, slip, or jam. Correct the issue before continuing.
