Anti-Roost Assembly
6.Unroll the bulk anti-roost cable. Note: If the cable is unrolled as
shown in Figure 50., taking 5 loops of the coil with one hand, then
changing hands to remove 5 loops as it is unrolled, it will lie flat
during installation.
7.Start at the hopper end of the line and form a
loop around the anti-roost bracket. For best
results, make a double loop around the anti-
roost insulator in the center groove of the
insulator and fasten with a 1/16" cable clamp as
shown in Figure 51.
8.Insert the cable in the insulator on the top of
each Grill Support between the hopper and the
next anti-roost bracket.
9.Attach a spring in the center
groove at the second anti-roost
bracket and cut the cable at this
point. See Figure 52.
10.Thread the ends of the cable
through the end of the spring.
Pull the cable tight so that there
is 3/4" to 1" [20 to 25 mm] of
stretch in the spring. Clamp the
cable to form a loop and cut off
any excess. See Figure 52.
11.Attach the cable to the
insulator. For best results, make
a double loop around the anti-
roost insulator in the center
groove of the insulator and
fasten with a 1/16" cable clamp
as shown in Figure 52.
12.Run the cable to the next insulator, attach a spring in the center groove at the anti-roost bracket and cut the
cable at this point. The cable should be positioned in the insulator built into the top of each grill support
along the feeder line.
13.Repeat this installation until the anti-roost cable is installed along the entire feeder line.
14.At the control unit, after clamping the cable to the spring, cut the cable about 8" to 10" [200 to 250 mm]
longer than necessary. Feed the end of the cable through the center of the spring, around the first insulator on
the control unit, and clamp the cable using the cable clamp supplied with the control unit. See Figure 55.
Install the wire form on the control unit insulators. Be sure the guard snaps into the retainers molded into the
