3 CABLE CLAMP INSTALLATION

Note: Support cables are installed in factory assembled bay and bow combinations.

Install Cable Clamps based on type of installation needed. Cross Bracing Installation consists of attaching 2 x 6 cross bracing between the rafter tails. Header Mount Installation consists of attaching to a solid structural member - header, sill plates or wall stud.

CROSS BRACING MOUNT OF CABLE CLAMPS

A.Install 2 x 6 cross braces between the rafter tails, directly above the cable holes in the bay/bow head board.

B.Install the cable clamps directly above the T-nuts where adequate support is available. Holding the clamp parallel to the up-running cable, drive the #12 x 3-1/4" square screws partway into the mounting surface using a #3 square drive bit.

C.Run the cable up through the bottom of the cable clamp.

Hold the cable up tight above the clamp and drive the two center clamp screws all the way in to lock the cable in place.

Drive in the remaining #12 x 3-1/4" square screws all the way.

Note: Make sure all 4 screws are driven in at maximum torque. Additional tensioning may be done with the nuts on the opposite end of the cable at the bottom of the bay/ bow unit.
