[TowerTalk] LM-470 Cable Question

Folks,

When fully nested, the top two sections of my LM-470 are
extended about 30" each verses the roughly 8" to 10" I would
expect.  The third section from the top (second from bottom)
nests properly.  In other words, when the lowest moving
section reaches the lower limit, the top two sections are
extended more than they should be.  I suspect the cable
system isn't adjusted correctly.  The LM-470 documentation
is very lacking when it comes to explaining how to properly
install and adjust the cable system.  Does anyone have a
better set of instructions on how to replace and adjust the
cable system?  Is this an adjustment issue or are the cables
on the upper two sections too short?
