* 3/16” Hex Allen Key

* Drill

* Drill Bits:

- 29/64”

- 7/32” (If there are intermediate posts between
the terminating end posts or where the length of
the Receiver or Push-Lock® fitting you are using
is less than the thickness of the end post)

- 15/16” (If you wish to counterbore the wood
end post to recess the 11HW14 washer)

 6100 Series Assembly

Drill Posts__________________________________________________________________________
Terminating (end) post for Invisiware® Receivers —

Drill a 29/64? hole from the back side of the end posts where each cable will be installed. For a 1-1/2? or less square end post using a 1-1/2? long receiver, a 2? end
post using a 2? long receiver, a 2-3/8? end post using a
2-3/8? long receiver, or a standard 4x4 using a 3-1/2?
long receiver, drill the hole completely through the post.
For posts thicker than the length of the receiver, drill a 7/32? pilot hole completely through the post, then drill a 29/64?
hole only through the back surface of the end post
(in the case of a wood post, to a depth a little
greater than the length of the receiver) but not completely through the post. 		Terminating (end) post for Push-Lock® fittings

Drill a 29/64” hole from the back
side of the end posts where each cable will be
installed. For a 2”or less square end post,
drill the hole completely through the post. For
posts greater than 2” thick, drill a 7/32” pilot
hole completely through the post, then drill a
29/64” hole only through the back surface of the
end post (in the case of a wood post, to a depth
a little greater than the length of the Push-Lock®
fitting) but not completely through the post.

Intermediate post or other element through
which the cable will pass between the end
posts —

Drill 7/32” diameter holes lined up with
the holes in the end post through which the cable
will pass between end posts.

Install Invisiware® Receivers______________________________________
  1. Slide the washer (black plastic for metal
    posts, (11HW14) stainless steel for wood
    posts) over the body of the receiver,
    then feed the receiver through the hole
    in the back of the post.

  2. By hand, screw the receiver body onto
    the swaged stud at least 6 full turns.
    Do not tension the cables at this point.
String the cable through the holes drilled in your intermediate posts (or other elements through which the cable passes between end posts) and through the end post where you will be installing the Push-Lock® fitting. See illustration below — Post A is the end post
to which the receiver is attached; Post B is the
end post to which the Push-Lock® fitting is to be
attached.
Install Push-Lock® fittings_______________________________________
  1. With the cable strung through the end post,
    cut the cable with a cable cutter (82T13), leaving enough cable extending out the back side of the post to be able to grasp the cable firmly with your hand (6” or more).


  2. Slide the washer (black plastic for metal posts, 11HW14 stainless steel for wood posts) over the body of the Push-Lock® fitting.







  3. Pull the cable tight and mark the cable at a point 'X' from the backside of the post. Cut the cable at the mark using a cable cutter (82T13).





  4. Push the cable into the hole in the fitting as far as it will go (approximately 1-1/16"). Twist the cable in the right-hand direction (with the lay of the cable) as you push it into the fitting. You will feel it slide through the jaws inside the stud.






  5. Pull the cable to set the gripping action of the Push-Lock® fitting.





  6. Tension the cables.
    After all the cables have been installed in
    both end posts, tension the cables with the
    receivers on the other end to approximately
    150 lbs. per cable by holding the cable with
    cable gripping pliers (50TCG1) closely behind
    the stud. Turn the receiver clockwise with a
    3/16” hex key as illustrated at right.









    Note: Tension in sequence shown in the illustration at right, beginning with outside the cables and moving from side to side toward the center.
