SAFETY

PRESSURE WARNINGS

• This equipment should be properly installed before use in accordance with local codes and ordinances.
  PSI is not applicable to operation of these particular series of reels.

OPERATIONAL WARNINGS

• Exercise care when handling the cable reel during normal operation. Cable reels have a rotating drum powered by a spring under tension.
• Do not use cable different from that for which the reel is intended. Changes in diameter, weight per foot, length of cable or flexibility (Minimum Bend Radius) 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.
• Overhead installation mountings should be such that the reel is not supported by bolts in tension. A safety chain, cable, enclosure or netting is strongly recommended to minimize damage and/or possible injury in the event of a mounting failure.

MAINTENANCE WARNINGS

• Modification of the equipment may cause excessive wear and will void the warranty. Contact COXREELS regarding changes or modifications of equipment which could affect reliability or safety.
  • DO NOT DISASSEMBLE A SPRING MOTOR FOR ANY REASON! Serious personal injury could result. Reels are equipped with a spring under tension. Contact COXREELS for assistance.

SPECIFICATIONS & LISTINGS

- The identified Series of Reel products within this manual are not certified or listed by any independent certifying or regulatory body. Refer to website, catalog, product labeling, or customer service for specific models which may be UL listed.

- This series of cable reels is intended for industrial use and are provided with permanent mounting means, with the exception of the portable reel models.

PRESSURE & TEMPERATURE RATING

• PSI rating is not applicable to operating factors of these reel series.
• Operational temperature ranges vary across the wide range of options. (Please refer to the COXREELS catalog, website or contact Customer Service for hose specific data). Cable reels should not be used at temperatures below or above the rating of the cable.

LABELS & MARKINGS

Cable Reels with and without cable

• The marking of the cable reel provide with or without cable includes the following
  The label on the frame includes the COXREELS name and Logo, the product catalog number, the individual product serial number, rating and what type and length of cable intended for use on the reel.
  The maximum electrical rating for every reel supplied without cable is marked on the COXREELS Identification Label. In absence of this information, refer to website, catalog, or customer service. Actual rating is determined by the installed cable and is not to exceed the indicated maximum operational rating.

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Ensure reel has been properly installed before connecting supply line.
• Before connecting to reel, be certain supply line does not exceed rated parameters of the cable reel or voltage / amperage rating.
• Perform "Operational Check" per instructions to ensure reel is operating properly.

WARNING: Prevent static sparking. When working around flammables, that the cable reel, cable, and equipment are properly grounded.

INSTALLATION

WARNING: READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL, OPERATE, OR MAINTAIN THIS PRODUCT. ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL SHOULD UNDERTAKE THE INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING OF THIS PRODUCT. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

OPERATIONAL CHECK

• Check reel for correct operation by slowly pulling out cable. A clicking noise will be heard after each half revolution of the drum.
• LATCH the reel. Pull out the cable and allow it to slightly retract after the first, second or third "click" is heard.
• UNLATCH the reel. Slowly pull the cable until the clicking noise stops, and then allow the cable to retract. The hose stopper should rest against the roller hose guide.

CAUTION: DO NOT ALLOW CABLE TO RETRACT WITHOUT RESTRAINING RECOIL SPEED. NEVER LET GO OF THE CABLE WHEN REWINDING. NOTE: EZ-COIL™ MODELS ARE DESIGNED TO RETRACT AT A SLOW CONTROLLED SPEED.

• Apply power to reel. Periodically check cable for improper wear.
• Reels are shipped with approximately three pre-wraps of tension. This is adequate for most applications. However, if your application requires more or less tension, see "Spring Tension Adjustment" instructions.

SPRING TENSION ADJUSTMENT

• Remove power from reel prior to making spring adjustments.
  • Pull out approximately 6 feet (2m) of cable and latch the drum.
• Add or subtract one wrap of cable as desired to acquire the proper tension on the reel.

NOTE: Spring tension adjustment is accomplished by adding wraps of cable around the drum (to increase tension) or subtracting wraps of cable (to decrease tension).

CAUTION: Improper tensioning of spring or adding too many pre-wraps may cause damage to spring mechanism. Only authorized personnel should make adjustments.

• Unlatch drum and check for proper tension.
• Connect power source.

SPRING CANISTER REPLACEMENT (SD Series)

• Pull out approximately 3 feet (1m) of cable and latch the reel.

WARNING: Use extreme caution when operating or servicing electrical cable reels. Personal injury or death can occur even under low voltage! Only qualified service technicians should troubleshoot and repair these products.

Observe all applicable NEC, OSHA, and local codes when operating or installing these products.

NOTE: Consider work area location when adjusting arm and permanently installing reel. Reel should be placed so that cord exits rollers at approximately zero degrees perpendicular. Avoid contact of cord at corners of roller guide. Pull cord straight out rollers when preparing for use and feed cord back through center of rollers to coil up on reel. Use free hand to help guide cord at entrance of roller guide.

CAUTION: Failure to adhere to above note may cause undue abrasion of cord and/or sticking of cord at corners.
