Secondary Pulley Assembly
5. Place the pulley divider on the pulley. (Figure 13) NOTE: The pulley
divider is NOT square. It is slightly wider one direction than the other.
During use, the pulley divider must be oriented long side horizontal, to
keep the cable from jumping between pulleys.
6. Set the wide pulley on top of the pulley divider. It is symmetrical so it can
be put on either way. (Figure 14) Set the cable anchor on top of the wide
pulley with the groove facing you and the notch out of the corner to your
right. (Figure 15)
7. Set the movable pulley assembly next to the AutoStop™ tube, and next to
it place the stationary pulley assembly. (Figure 16) You are now ready to
route the cable around the pulleys.
8. Pull the cable through so you have all the slack at the back where you will
be wrapping the cable. The AutoStop™ tube should still be positioned
with the tongue flat side towards you. (Figure 16)
9. Refer to (Figure 17) while wrapping cable around the pulleys. The cable
should protrude from the AutoStop™ tube at the lower corner of the
tongue flat side facing you. From here, route the cable in front of pulley
“A” and counterclockwise around pulley “B”. Continue on the back side
back to pulley “A” and go around it counterclockwise also. From here,
route the cable around pulley “C” counterclockwise then pulley “D”
counterclockwise. Lay the cable in the groove in the cable anchor and set the cable swage into
the notch in the cable anchor.
10. Once you have the cable wrapped properly, pull slowly on the other end of the cable while
holding the pulleys and swage in place with the other hand to prevent the cable from unwrapping.
Keep tension on the cable and slide the pulleys into the AutoStop™ tube. (Figure 18) When the
second set of pulleys start into the tube, stop and remove the 5/8 rod.
11. Pull slowly on the cable until the holes in the second set of pulleys line up with the holes in the
end of the AutoStop™ tube and insert the 5/8 rod.
12. With the AutoStop™ still on its side, be sure that the pulleys, cable anchor, and pulley divider are
all together and pressed down to the side of the tube. Place a 20 thousandths inch (.020”) feeler
gauge between the cable anchor and wide pulley and tighten the set screw in the end of the
cable anchor. (Figure 19)
NOTE: Be sure to keep the 5/8 rod centered in the AutoStop™ tube
while tightening the set screw.
