Task 11: strike Tube control cable

The following instructions illustrate the installation of the

strike tube control cable. Depending on the length of the

screed there are two lengths of cables to choose from. A

16 ft. (4.87 meters) and a 50 ft. (15.24 meters).
The control cable (Figure 30) should already be connected

to the strike tube speed and direction control lever which

can be located at the operator's platform.
The other end of the control cable should be laying inside

the trusses waiting to be connected to the hydraulic pump

lever located at the power unit end of the screed.

2. Insert the bracket onto threaded stud which is welded

to power unit. Secure bracket with washer and wing-nut.

cable to the frame at the operator's platform.
