> I've started lubricating the cables on my HDX589 with PreLube 6. For
the
main spool cable, I applied the lube when lowering the tower by spraying
into a slotted plastic funnel on the cable. That technique worked very
well. But now looking at the higher section cables between the
sections, I'm wondering if there is a neat technique for application of
the lube to them? Get to the top with the tower down, spray, and hope
the lube runs all the way down the cable??
Well, sort of. I don't know if the lubricant will run all the way down
a cable - I haven't tried it. But starting at the top and squirting the
PreLube on every 2-3 feet is the way I've done it.
Be careful since the over-spray will get on lots of other stuff
besides the cables and if you're not careful will lubricate you right off the
tower.
Let us know if it'll run all the way down. That would be too
convenient - hi.
