Section 2. CM6/CM10 Tripod Installation
FIGURE 2-6. Guy Wire Installation
1. Construct an assembly consisting of the top plate, wire ropes, 3 thimbles,
and 6 u-bolts.
a. Place a thimble into each of the three small holes of the top plate.
Twist each thimble slightly, as shown in Figure 2-7, to accomplish
this.
b. Thread a piece of wire rope through each of the three small top plate
holes. Double the wire rope back on itself about 8 inches. Clamp the
doubled wire with two u-bolts per wire, forming a loop. Fit the wire
loop into the thimble groove. Adjust the u-bolts as needed. Once the
thimble and wire loop are fitted together, tighten the u-bolts to secure
the clamps.
