Installing Actuator Wire - Chore-Time REVOLUTION 8 Installation And Operator's Manual

Actuator Installation (Window Cone Systems)

Installing actuator wire:

1.Beginning at the terminal spring bracket or if a pusher pan is used start at that spring bracket. Slide the end of
the actuator wire through the two holes in the bracket and through the center of the end spring, see figure 44
2.Pull the wire through the spring and bracket until you reach the intermediate spring and bracket. Slide the
end of the wire though the two holes in the bracket and through the center of the spring.
3.Continue pulling the actuator wire until you reach the actuator. (Lay the unrolled wire behind the pivot
brackets, this will help to eliminate slack in the wire.)
4.At the actuator:
• Position the actuator so the actuator is in the "Fully Open Brood Gate Position" (see figure 45) if it is
not already in the "Fully Open Brood Gate position".
• Feed the actuator wire through the clevis pin on the actuator.
• Allow a minimum of 2" [5.08 cm] of actuator wire to extend past the clevis pin then cut the actuator
wire.
• Tighten the set screws on the clevis pins so they clamp down on the actuator wire, see figure 45.
