Safety instructions Regarding name plates, warning labels and labels: ・Never remove or deface any name plates, warning labels or labels which are attached to the body. The operator should always observe them. Regarding installation (page 8): ・Never use in ignitable or explosive atmospheres. ・...
Page 6
Regarding initial tension setting (page 14): ・ ・ ・ ・ Never let go of the drum during any work. When released, the drum suddenly rotates, possibly causing personal injury. ・ ・ ・ ・ After setting the initial tension, wire connection requires more than 2 people to secure the drum and connect the cable.
Page 7
Regarding brush and slip ring replacement (page 20): ・ ・ ・ ・ Electric shock hazard. Turn off the power and verify safety using some kind of electrical test sensor before carrying out replacement. ・ ・ ・ ・ Allow the cable to fully wind onto the drum to give the minimum winding tension before carrying out replacement.
2. Terminology definitions The terminology used in this manual will be explained here. If there is any terminology which is unclear or not included in this section, please contact our company. Winding methods: Figure 1 M o v i n g r e e l F...

4-3. Ground connection work ・ ・ ・ ・ Electric shock hazard. Do the ground connection work. ・ ・ ・ ・ Never connect the earth line to the following: Gas pipes, etc. : Danger of ignition or an explosion. Phone lines / lightning rods : Danger of being struck by lightning. Along plastic water pipes : Does not act as an earth.
5-2. Cable connection ・ ・ ・ ・ Electric shock hazard. Turn off the power before carrying out any work. ・ ・ ・ ・ Do not install cable to drum more than 2-3 times round. (2-3 times means winding length & initial spring turns) Make free space in drum, otherwise cable could spill out from drum cover.

■ Winding side cable (See figure 13) (1) Loosen the cross recessed head screws Figure 12 S l e e v e and remove the dust proof cover and W a s h e r C o n n e c t o r n u t dust proof spacer.
Example) Model CRL-2A205W, for the case of 20 drum turns According to table 1, total number of spring turns = 39. According to table 2, standard value of initial spring turns = 2 - 6, Number of spare spring turns = 3 or more. Upper limit of initial spring turns = 39 - (20 + 3) = 16.
7-2. Adjustments (1) Initial tension modification Increase the number of initial spring turns one by one without exceeding the upper limit. If there is no improvement, set the initial tension back to the first value. (2) X axis modification Tilt the X axis at a small angle by inserting a spacer under the bracket. Figure 18 S...
(5) Ratchet device (Drawer dedicated manual) This is used when the winding operation stops and the cable is still paid out. To stop the drum, pull out the cable slightly then let it return. If the drum does not stop, pull out the cable a different length and try again. To release the drum, pull out the cable so as to rotate the drum by 1/2 turns.
10-2. Slip ring inspections ・ ・ ・ ・ Electric shock hazard. Turn off the power before removing the dust proof cover. ・ ・ ・ ・ Verify safety using some kind of electrical test sensor before carrying out inspections. ・ ・ ・ ・ Take care as the slip ring assembly can still be very hot even if the power is cut. (1) Dust proof cover and dust proof spacer Figure 24 C...
(4) Slip rings ・ Are carbon powders adhering to the brush holders? Wipe off with a cloth or the like if adhering. ・ Are the slip ring surfaces rough or discolored? If there are any scratches or burns on the surface, polish with # 240 or finer sand paper. (5) Bolts and screws ・...
12. Brush and slip ring replacement ・ ・ ・ ・ Electric shock hazard. Turn off the power and verify safety using some kind of electrical test sensor before carrying out replacement. ・ ・ ・ ・ Allow the cable to fully wind onto the drum to give the minimum winding tension before carrying out replacement.
12-3. Slip ring replacement (See figure 29 (page 21)) (1) Remove the terminal plate, plate and brush holders in the same manner as section 12-2. " Brush holder replacement". Figure 32 NOTE: When replacing the slip rings alone, the slip rings can be removed without removing the brush holders.
13-1. Disassembly of slip ring assembly and bracket (Common method for all spring structures) (1) Turn off the power and allow the cable to fully wind onto the drum to give minimum winding tension, then dismantle the mating equipment side wiring. Allow the dismantled cable to wind around the drum, slowly turning the drum until the winding tension in the drum is released.

(6) Install the spring into the drum. 1) Before installation, check the assembling direction which depends on the winding direction of the reel. See figure 37. 2) Slightly move the band upward in order to make the removal Figur e 36 easy.
Page 30
■ For spring structure B (1 spring and an empty spring case) Figure 39 (1) Remove the bush and the empty spring case B u s h ( W i t h n o n - c i r c u l a r h o l e ) from the drum.
Page 31
3) Place the spring into the drum. Fit the center edge of the spring into the slit of the bush by hammering. Put a steel plate or the like to protect the spring when hammering. 4) Place the outer edge of the spring on the spring fixing portion of the drum. See figure 37 (page 25).
Page 32
(5) Before reassembly, clean and inspect all the disassembled parts. Replace worn, cracked, damaged or deformed parts. (6) Lightly lubricate the bush attaching portion of the spindle and the inside surface of the bush with grease (IDEMITHU, DAPHNE EPONEX GREASE EP-1 or equivalents). Attach the bush with the circular hole to the spindle.
Page 33
(9) Stand the drum with the spindle being horizontal. Secure the drum by some means not to allow falling or moving. (10) Place the notch key and notch springs into the slot of the spindle. Take care as the assembling direction of the notch key depends on the winding direction of the reel.
Page 34
■ For spring structure D (2 springs, double-torque) Figure 43 (1) Weld steel plates to the spring in B u s h W e l d b o t h order to prevent the spring from ( W i t h n o n - c i r c u l a r h o l e ) s...
4) Place the outer edge of the spring on the spring fixing portion of the drum. See figure 37 (page 25). 5) Insert a screw driver into the space between the band and the spring as shown in figure 38 (page 25), then remove the band. Take care not to catch your finger in the spring since the spring will expand explosively when the band is removed.
13-4. Spring disposal The spring is dangerous due to remaining tension even if it is broken. Weld steel plates to the spring even if the spring is in the spring case in order to prevent the spring from expansion before disposal. Never use gas welding, only use arc welding.
