Attach vertical dividers when filling your Cableveyor with cables & hoses.
With the arms open, attach the vertical dividers as follows.
1. Hook one of the catches on the end of the vertical divider into the link.
(circled red in photo on right)
2. Snap in the other catch by pushing the divider down in the direction of the arrow.
*Either end of the vertical divider can be used.
*Insert horizontal dividers into the vertical divider holes first, and then attach the unit
to the link. (Note: This will require more than one vertical divider.)
Pretension and sag may appear in the free span depending on the application. However, if selected within Tsubaki’s
performance graph then there will be no problems with use.
1. Machine travel end installation height (H’) should be
Cableveyor height H + (10-30).
2. Cableveyor space height (h) is H + 100.
3. Install a guide rail.
4. The difference (İ) in the travel end and fixed end
bracket attachment sides should be less than 4mm.
5. Use travel cables/hoses with excellent bending and
wear properties.
6. Avoid using cables/hoses with wire braiding, as they
are easily damaged.
7. Cables/hoses wear easily when used stacked onto
of one another. Lay horizontally or use horizontal
dividers.
8. Set cables and hoses in the Cableveyor so that
they have some play, and clamp both ends.
9. Remove foreign objects from guide rails, as they
may cause damage.
10. The following are shipped unassembled and will
require assembly when installing the Cableveyor.

Any unevenness on the plastic bracket installation surface may damage the bracket. Ensure that the installation
surface is as smooth as possible. Over-tightening the installation bolts can also damage the plastic bracket. Please use
the following recommended tightening torque.
