Troubleshooting - Removing & Replacing Control Cable - Basic American Zenith 7000 Instructions For Use And Service Manual

TROUBLESHOOTING - REMOVING & REPLACING CONTROL CABLE
IF CONTROL CABLE IS DAMAGED, UNPLUG,
LOWER CONTROL BOX, AND REPLACE
1. UNPLUG THE POWER CORD FROM THE WALL OUTLET.
2. Unplug the OLD Black Control Cable from the Control
Box and from the male staff control cable.
3. Plug in the NEW Black Control Cable into the Control Box.
4. Cut the cable tie that attaches the Control Box to the
mounting bracket (near the ground wire screw).
Remove the cable tie and discard.
5. Slide the Control Box in the bracket slot toward the
footboard until it hits the back of the slot.
6a. Tilt the front of the Control Box downward, holding the box
from the bottom (motor cables are still attached).
6b. Fish the old Control Cable toward the footboard, between
the box and the main frame cross brace. Discard the old
Control Cable.
6c. Fish the other end of the NEW Control Cable around the
control arm bracket and toward the foot board. The cable
will lie between the Control Box and main frame cross
brace as before. (This is done as a safety feature.)
6d. Tilt the front of the Control Box up to a horizontal position
and slide it toward the footboard, then push it forward
( toward the center of the bed ) to lock in place.
7. Re-tie the Control Box to the mounting bracket with a
Cable Tie (near ground wire screw). Cut off any excess.
8. Gather the Black Control Cable on the other side of the
cross brace (toward the footboard) and loosely cable tie
to the brace (you will tighten later).
9. Plug the male staff control cable's phone jack into the
cylindrical female end of the Control Cable, and screw on
the retaining cap to secure.
10. Plug in the pendant into either the right or left side of
the T-Cable under the seat pan (middle of bed) and
re-plug the power cord into the wall outlet.
11. Test both the hand pendant and staff control to make
sure everything works properly.
12. Run a cable tie through the large hole at the end of the
right hand mounting tube. Loop the longest of the staff
control cables and tie both together to the tube. Pull tight
to secure. Now gently pull the Control Cable's tie tight.
