To check the cable tension, look at the spring coils holding the cable. The coils should be closed as shown in Figure 1.
If the coils are open as shown in Figure 2, tighten the cable by pulling on the cable slightly with your fingers as you tighten the thumb screw.

CAUTION!! DO NOT over-compress the coils or you may cause excessive wear to the cable terminal. Figure 3 shows an over-compressed coil. |
