STEP 7: (Installing / Routing EQUALIZER CABLES)
1. Raise and lock each carriage on the first safety latch engagement, approximately 30” high.
2. Make sure that the safety locks on each column are fully engaged before attempting to route equalizer
cables.
3. Be sure each carriage is at the same height by measuring from the top of the base to the bottom of the
carriage. This difference should be within 1/4”.
4. Route the first cable. (See Figs 11-14) Screw the nut on the cable stud so that half thread pass through
the nut. Pull the other end of the cable and screw the nut on it also. Then tighten both nuts.
