Putting the Equalizing Cables into Position
It is much easier to put the Equalizing Cables into position before you stand up the Posts. Note that
this is not a full install of the Equalizing Cables, just putting them into position and looping the excess
at the top of the Post secured with a Zip Tie or Tape.
NOTICE The two Equalizing Cables are the same length.
⚠ CAUTION BendPak recommends wearing safety gloves when handling the Equalizing Cables.
The following graphic provides an overview of the Equalizer Cable routed into position.
Not to scale, components removed for clarity.
