3.4 Routing the Power/Serial Communications Cable
Special care should be taken when routing the power/serial communications cable (if the standard coiled wired
version is used). To ensure that the signal cable is installed properly and away from situations that could cause it
harm use the following steps.
1. Mount the indicator to the forklift per instructions in Section 3.1.
2. Lay the coiled up signal cable along the route between the indicator and the forklift scale.
Figure 3-7. Signal Cable Between Scale and Indicator
The preferred route is through the center of the mast. If it has a three stage mast, route along side the mast
as shown in Figure 3-8.

3. Secure with cable ties at the bottom of the scale and at the top of the mast
4. Slowly and carefully extend the mast to all positions to confirm that the cable isn’t pulled too tight or that
there are pinch points along the way.
5. Check for proper signal cable clearance as the side shifter is moved back and forth.
