Specific Operation Warnings
 Exercise care when handling the cable reel during normal operation. Cord reels have a rotating
drum powered by a spring under tension.
 Do not use cord different than what is supplied with this reel. Changes in diameter, weight per
foot, length of cord or flexibility will affect the operation of the reel.
 Mounting hardware and fasteners should be installed to maintain tightness under vibration and
checked periodically to ensure tightness. Mounting hardware and fasteners not included.
 Ensure that only the qualified electrician can installs/services this cord reel. And it must not be
used by children or unskilled persons.
 Ensure that power supply voltage does not exceed the maximum voltage rating of the reel.
 Ensure that the reel is properly installed before connecting to power supply.
 Ensure that all electrical power is disconnected from reel before servicing.
 Check for frayed or broken wires before each use.
 When pulling the electrical cord from the reel always grasp the electrical cord itself, not the work
device.
 Disconnect power from the reel immediately if any malfunction occurs.
 Never remove, tamper with or cut out the safety devices fitted by the manufacture.
 Do not use the reel in damp or wet conditions. Avoid getting debris in the cord reel.
Grounding
 This reel must be grounded to protect the operator from electrical shock. The reel is equipped
with a lead-in cord that has a three-prong grounding plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a
matching receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes
and ordinances.
 DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit the receptacle, have the proper
receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
 CHECK with a qualified electrician or service person if you do not completely understand the
grounding instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly grounded.
Grounded Tools: Tools with 3-Prong Plugs
Tools marked with Grounding Required have a 3-wire cord and 3-prong grounding plug. The plug
must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool should electrically malfunction or break
down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the
risk of electric shock. (See Figure A.)
The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding
system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the tool’s grounding
system and must never be attached to an electrically live terminal.
Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all codes and ordinances.
