Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I measure for total cable length?
A: Use a flexible ruler and snake it through the intended cable route. The cable length is measured from tip-to-tip of the attaching ends, not the cable housing mounting points.
Q: My cable installation is close to the exhaust system. How do I protect it from the heat?
A: When installing a cable in an excessive heat environment, incorporating a heat deflector shield with adequate air gaps between the heat source and the cable housing is recommended.
For the most efficient and longest cable operating life it is recommended to install the cable so the heaviest load is in a pulling motion whenever possible.
