Install a lock washer and nut to secure the bolt.
Continue the process until all four of the attachment
bolts are installed on each Cable Guide Assembly.
NOTE:
If properly installed, the Guide Cable should
slide freely through the Cable Guide blocks and the
Diaphragm should slide freely along the cable.
Tighten Cable Guide bolts
Use an impact wrench (or hand tools) to securely
tighten the (4) bolts holding the Cable Guide blocks to
the plate on the bottom of each Diaphragm. Use the
Cable Guide Hardware Kit #K001004.
Compact Cables run thru the Cable Guide blocks on the Diaphragm bottoms

Front of Backstop
Pipe Panel Mounts attach to the compact backstop Diaphragm
Step 6.
Attach the Pipe Panel Mounts to the sides of the
Backstop. (The End Panels are not attached directly
to the Backstop Diaphragm.) The Pipe Panel Mount
attaches between the Backstop Diaphragm and the
End Panel to facilitate proper system performance
during side impacts in this area.
The Pipe Panel Mount is made from a piece of 6"
(150 mm) diameter galvanized pipe with angles of
material cut out of the top and bottom of one end.
NOTE: It is important that the end of the mount that
is cut flat be facing the back (downstream) end of the
system and that the cut out end of the Pipe Panel
Mount be facing toward the front (upstream).
Install all four Pipe Panel Mounts
To attach the Pipe Panel Mount to the Backstop
Diaphragm, place a washer on the attachment bolt
and push the bolt through the inside hole on the Pipe
Panel Mount and continue the bolt through the hole
located on the side of the Diaphragm that is a part of
the Backstop as shown in the photo above. Use the
Pipe Panel Hardware Kit #K001017.
