Adjusting the Tension of the Scanner Drive Cable

Move the mirror 1 mount to the home position (start position). As shown in Figure 10-210, pull
at point [A] (approximate center) of the free cable with a spring gauge so that the cable lengths
touch each other. If the reading on the spring balance is not about 1.0 ±0.5 kg, loosen the screws [B]
of Figure 10-213, turn screw [A] to achieve this reading, and then tighten the screws [B].
