Routing the Lifting Cables
Before routing the Lifting Cables, you need to know the following:
• BendPak strongly recommends using gloves when working with the Lifting Cables.
• Each Lift has four Lifting Cables. All four are different lengths. Each Lifting Cable is the right length
for one path. If you use a Lifting Cable in the wrong path, it will be either too short or too long.
• All Lifting Cables have a Button end and a Threaded end.
• The Threaded End of each Lifting Cable attaches at the top of a Post. Before routing each Lifting
Cable, remove the Nut and Washer at the Threaded End.
• The Button End of each Lifting Cable attaches at the Cable Anchor Plate on the side of the
Powerside Runway.
See the drawings on the next two pages for the path each Lifting Cable takes.
• There are several kinds of Sheaves: Cable Sheaves (10), Gusset Sheaves (4), and Side Sheaves
(2). All Sheaves should be removed before routing the Lifting Cables.
• There are 10 Cable Sheaves: four in the Pull Box, four on one end of the Powerside Runway
adjacent to the Large Windows, and two on the other end of the Powerside Runway adjacent to
the Small Windows.
• There are four Gusset Sheaves, one in each Crosstube Gusset; each has a Lock Pin that also
needs to be removed.
• There are two Side Sheaves, one on each side of the Powerside Runway.
• All Sheaves come installed. They should have been removed earlier in the installation process, just
before installing the Runways. If any of the Sheaves are still in place, remove them before you start
routing the Lifting Cables.
• When you removed the Sheaves, the components needed to put them back into place should
have been kept together. It is important to reinstall the Sheaves at the same location from which
you removed them, using the same components.
