Abstract
An improved cable control mechanism for releasing a hydraulic locking device by an operator from a remote location is provided with a clamping mechanism for quickly attaching one end at the control cable to the output lever assembly at the proper point for reliable operation of the device without prior measurement of the cable length. The clamping lever also covers the sharp free end of the cable to avoid injury to maintenance personnel. Other improvements disclosed include separate retaining clips for more conveniently mounting the output lever assembly to the locking device and for attaching the cable conduit to the output lever assembly.
