Figure 2 - Wrap Tape Around X-Drive Pulley
•
IMPORTANT!! If the x-cable is not secured to the x-drive pulley it will most likely unwind off
the pulley when the latter is disassembled from the X-motor. This results in a longer ma-
chine-downtime due to the time it takes to reassemble the cable. The cable must be precisely
wound; the correct lengths of the cable extending from the spool are very important to the
functioning of the machine.
CAUTION!!
DO NOT drop the x-cable spool or allow the star washers that are pressed inside the
spool to come loose. These star washers are precision aligned and pressed inside the spool with
a fixture at the factory. If the star washers come loose or fall out, replace the x-cable assembly
(comes with a spool). Installing a spool with star washers out of position or missing will likely
result in damage to the machine.
7. Wrap some tape around the x-drive pulley to secure the cable to the pulley and prevent it from
coming unwound.
8. Remove the left or right upper arm side cover.
Figure 3 - X-Cable Tensioning Screw
9. Loosen the tension on the x-cable at the x-cable tensioning screw located at the front of the ma-
chine on the left side by loosening the nut.
10. Remove the screw mounting the x-cable spool to the motor and remove the spool.
