> Has anyone on the reflector ever replaced the cables on a HDX555 Tower?
I
have the cabling diagrams from US Tower, but wanted to know if there are
any
secrets or anything I should know about the actual changeout?
Howdy --
It makes a difference whether you have positive pull-down or not.
In any case, why are you compelled to replace the cables? I've worked
on many crank-ups over the years and have only seen one where the cables
actually needed replacing.
The 3 reasons why you would replace them are: 1) damage - kinking or
flattening of the cable; 2) excessive broken strands - you're allowed up to
7 before needing replacement; and 3) rust - cancerous rust, not surface
rust. I'll bet you a nickel that you don't have any of those conditions.
