Read these instructions carefully before attempting to install, operate or
maintain this product. Only qualified persons should install this product.
Failure to comply with instructions may result in personal injury and/
or property damage. Every attempt is made to ensure the accuracy and
Safety
1. Ensure that power supply voltage does not exceed maximum voltage
rating of reel. Also, ensure that reel is properly installed before
connecting to power supply.
2. All cord reels with flying leads must be hard wired to ensure proper
function.
3. Check for frayed/broken wires before each use.
4. Do not exeed maximum installation height of 16 ft unless specified.
5. A high tension spring assembly is contained within the reel. Exercise
extreme caution.
6. Remove all spring tension and electric power before beginning any
disassembly process.
7. If an electrical malfunction should occur, remove power from reel
immediately.
8. Ensure that reel, electrical cord, and equipment being serviced are
properly grounded. Use an ohmmeter to check ground continuity.
9. Reels that include explosion-proof fluorescent hand lamps are not
explosion-proof themselves.
10. The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter Receptacle is designed to protect
people from line-to-ground shock hazards. The GCFI does not protect
against short circuits or overloads. This is the function of the fuse or
circuit breaker. Test monthly.
11. Pull electrical cord from reel by grasping the electrical cord itself, not
the work device.
12. If reel ceases to unwind or rewind, remove electrical power
immediately. Do not jerk excessively on electrical cable!
13. Treat and respect the cord reel as any other piece of machinery,
observing all common safety practices.
Installation
Ensure that only a qualified electrician installs/services this equipment.
Observe applicable NEC, OSHA, and local electrical codes when installing
this equipment. Installation of GFCI cord reels should be performed by a
qualified and licensed professional in accordance with local building codes
and applicable NEC standards.
Mounting & Guide Arm Adjustment
The cord reel is equipped for universal mounting so that it can be mounted
on a structurally sound floor, wall or ceiling; whichever provides
maximum performance. The guide arm must be rotated to a position that
allows the cord to feed through the roller brackets with minimal bending.
Replace the fasteners. Where applicable, the U-Bolt must be placed in
the proper location when rotating the guide arm, otherwise the reel might
"latch out" during use. Refer to online manual for proper U-Bolt locations.

Cord reel spring and bearings are factory lubricated and require no further
lubrication.
CAUTION: Exercise extreme caution when adding or removing spring
tension. Ensure reel base is fastened down prior to adjusting
tension. Do not move spool while tightening hose or latch will
disengage.
1. Wind spool flange required number of turns to achieve proper tension
(Refer to online Tech Bulletin). Do not over-tighten.
2. Engage cord latching mechanism. Remove access cover.
3. Strip 4" to 8" of output electrical cord outer jacket.
4. Route cord through U-Bolt*, cutout in spool, then through strain relief
(90° elbow). Tighten U-Bolt* and strain relief (90° elbow) as required.
*Where applicable; not all models contain a U-bolt.
5. Using splicing connectors, connect output electrical cord wires
to collector assembly brush wires. Connect ground wire of output
electrical cable to ground lug.
6. Check for ground faults using an ohmmeter.
7. Install access cover. Carefully release latch and firmly hold the cord
while winding it onto reel. Install bumper stop at desired position.
To adjust spring tension, add or remove wraps of cord from the spool,
one wrap at a time, until desired tension is obtained (refer to safety
cautionary statements). Cord latching mechanism can be removed for
constant tension applications.
Extensive repairs should be performed only by the factory service center to
avoid damage which may cause serious injury or void your warranty.
CAUTION: Remove all spring tension and
electrical power before disassembly process.
