Zusammenfassung:	In an extendible belt conveyor with a boom mounted for movement with respect to a penultimate section and a cable extending from user controls on the boom to the penultimate section, a cable management system may include a first pulley mounted to an underside of the penultimate section and a second pulley mounted to the underside of the penultimate section, with a distance between the first pulley and the second pulley adjusted to maintain tension in the cable. The cable management system may also include a first shoe mounted to an underside of the boom near the penultimate section and a second shoe mounted to the underside of the penultimate section near the boom. The first shoe defines a channel for receiving the cable and the second shoe defines a channel for receiving the cable, with the cable passing around the first shoe and then around the second shoe.
