Installing the Reel-Off Cable
Warning:
The Reel-Off Cable must be properly
pre-tensioned. This procedure keeps the cable taut
at all times, with controlled, steady exit from the
Extension Reel. Follow the steps below.
Pre-Tension Steps
1) Fully retract the boom.
2) Slowly rotate the Extension Reel clockwise until
a “click” is heard, indicating that the clutch inside
the Reel is engaged.
3) Turn the Extension Reel counterclockwise for 5
complete rotations.
Note: A temporary marker placed on the
Extension Reel can facilitate the rotation count.
Pre-Tension is complete.
