2.10 The use of cable

Precautions for using standard cable:
 Do not use the standard cable when the cable is required for moving or bending. Please
use a flexible cable instead.
Precautions for using flexible cable:
 Inappropriate installation and wrong usage shorten the cable lifetime.
 Do not twist the cable when installing.
 Do not fix the cable on or near the bending part, otherwise the cable may break.
 After cable fixation, make sure the cable can be moved with ease, so that it does not
create excessive tension on the bending or fixation part.
 Prevent the connectors of the cable from being subject to stress.
 Excessive cable length causes unnecessary bending, while insufficient cable length leads
to breakage due to the excessive tension on the cable fixation part. Estimate the suitable
cable length by dragging the cable carrier to the longest and shortest possible.
 When installing the cable carrier, avoid contact between the cables. Do not stack the
cables one above the other; use dividers to prevent cable entanglement instead.
Avoid scraping, crushing, or stepping on the cable. This can damage the inner wires even

when the cable seems intact on the outside.
 Do not bend the flexible cable under any normal circumstances. Refer to Section 3.1.6.6
for detailed flexible cable specifications.
