INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on purchasing the best mobile cable dispensing system on the market. This
manual has been prepared to acquaint you with the LARSON MOBILE CABLE DISPENSING
SYSTEM (LMCDS) and its maintenance, setup, operation, and transport. Please note, this
manual contains important safety information that both you and others operating this trailer
must know. Please give your full attention to safety.
Here at LARSON, we have been burying cable for over 45 years. Several years ago we started
burying fiber optic cable. This was a whole new challenge since fiber can't be cut and spliced
when obstacles are met. We initially designed a figure-8 machine and reel winder for our cable
plow. However, when we came to an obstacle (oil road, shallow cables, etc.) our plow and the
entire crew were left figure-8ing. Efficiency was very poor.
We looked everywhere for a trailer capable of figure-8ing and rewinding. There wasn't a cable
trailer that had a bed or reel turner rugged enough for our needs. And most, if not all, cable
trailers we found had no suspension, slowing transport.
We designed and built the LMCDS to meet our needs. This trailer will also save you time and
manpower as you bury cable in a new and more efficient way.
We soon realized that the trailer we had developed was invaluable in other capacities as well.
So the LMCDS was created for those who desire a high-quality, self-loading, multi-purpose unit
for use on the utility job site.
When it comes to service, your LARSON Authorized Sales Representative knows your trailer the
best and is interested in your complete satisfaction. We invite you to return to your
representative for all of your service needs both during and after the warranty period.
