Either drill and tap the hole or use a nut and bolt to secure the clip. • Ensure the cable does not have tight bends. The minimum recommended radius is 6.35 cm (2.5 inches). • Ensure cables do not swing or chafe on the structure. This often requires using cable ties approximately every one foot, and ensuring the cables do not flex often, especially where they connect to the VC6000 series. • If you must re-position the VC6000 series occasionally, ensure there is enough slack in the cable to accommodate movement without putting tension on the cable. • Use plastic cable ties to secure the cables to the Cable Tie Bracket of the VC6000. Cable Tie Bracket • Connect the power as close to the battery as possible, but not directly from the battery terminals, and not before any main fuse. • On gasoline, diesel or propane electric lift trucks, connect the power as close to the battery terminals as possible, and avoid using existing wiring. • Ensure that the fuse is as close as possible to the power source. • The fuse must be securely mounted and in an accessible location. • Do not install where the cable will be a trip hazard or interfere with safety of day-to-day activities or otherwise create a hazardous condition. Quick Reference Guide 15 • Fix the cable to existing cable runs inside the electric lift truck using cable ties, but make sure they are away from any moving or hot surfaces. • If the VC6090 needs to be re-positioned, be sure there is enough slack in the cable to accommodate movement without putting tension on the cable. • DO NOT wind a cable in and out of the mesh on a cage. • DO NOT route the cables on the outside of the electric lift truck or areas where the electric lift truck may come in contact with objects. WARNING: Shortening or modifying the cable and/or by-passing the in-line fuse voids the product warranty, nullifies the product UL safety mark, and may result in a hazardous condition. Do not modify the cable under any circumstance.
