2. INSTALLATION
2.4 Cable stress
(1) The way of clamping the cable must be fully examined so that flexing stress and cable's own weight
stress are not applied to the cable connection.
(2) In any application where the servo motor moves, the cables should be free from excessive stress. For
use in any application where the servo motor moves run the cables so that their flexing portions fall
within the optional encoder cable range. Fix the encoder cable and power cable of the servo motor.
(3) Avoid any probability that the cable sheath might be cut by sharp chips, rubbed by a machine corner
or stamped by workers or vehicles.
(4) For installation on a machine where the servo motor will move, the flexing radius should be made as
large as possible. Refer to section 11.4 for the flexing life.
