Fast and Simple Installation

The vernier control head is easily disconnected from the cable by simply backing off the coupling nut and disengaging the connectors. This feature eliminates pushing cables through mounting cutouts and trying to route from the cab end. The control head can be mounted independently to the dash and then connected to the cable on the other side of the dash or firewall.

Operating Loads

The Vernier Control is recommended for operating loads up to 9 kgs regardless of the series cable selected. The control can withstand much higher operating loads, but human engineering factors come into play at about 20 lbs. Operating finger-tip type controls at loads above 20 lbs. can cause fatigue and discomfort to operator’s fingers and hands.

Consideration should be given to a different type of control for loads exceeding 20 lbs.

Cable Travel

The Quick Release Vernier features a standard 3” of travel. Travel under 3” can be accommodated using an L type cable and a stop collar or pivot on the core wire to restrict travel. Reduced travel with 30 or 40 series cables with rod type out put ends can be accomodated with stops on the lever or mechanism for which the cable is attached.

Measuring and ordering

All cables with exposed wire are measured to the point where the core wire exits the cable conduit.

Cables with rod-type end fittings are measured to the rod end.

A Quick Release Vernier Control can be ordered as two separate items. Use part number 317310 for the Vernier Control Head. Then order the desired cable part number (see chart above), immediately followed by the desired cable length in quarter metre increments.
