INSTALLATION
Be sure reel base is securely grounded to mounting surface. Check for continuity following installation. On painted surfaces,
remove paint at bolt location, use external tooth lockwashers or run ground wire from reel base to grounded object. Failure to
ground will prevent reel from performing its intended function and could result in personal injury.
CAUTION
Mount reel to grounded, metal surface using four holes in mounting base. To minimize wear on cable and cable guide, reel
should be mounted in direct line with work so that cable is pulled out as straight as possible during use. See figures 1 & 2.
Never add / remove tension when the cable is extended from the reel. The cable must always be fully wound on the reel.
TENSION ADJUSTMENT
1. Hold shaft securely with wrench and remove 2 screws from hub.
2. Turn shaft clockwise / counter-clockwise to add / remove tension (one full turn at a time).
3. When desired tension is achieved, replace the 2 screws.
RATCHET LOCK USE
Engage ratchet lock by pulling cable out to desired position and letting it retract SLOWLY until lock engages. To release lock,
quickly pull cable out a short distance and allow it to begin to retract-it operates like a window shade. Locking feature may be
turned off by turning knob on side of reel.
DO NOT allow cable to retract in an uncontrolled manner. Always guide cable back to reel. Failure to do so can result in
damage to reel or personal injury.
