Retractor Operation
Once installed, the retractors are ready for regular operation.
CAUTION:
•
Do not operate a retractor until it is installed.
•
When retracting, hold the cable with one hand and press the release button with the other.
•
Retraction should be a slow, controlled motion.
•
Keep hands away from moving parts.
Extend a Cable
To connect a cable, grab the connector and pull enough cable from the retractor to connect it to the device. There is no need to
press the cable release button. When you stop pulling the cable, the retractor will fix the length automatically.
Retract a Cable
To retract a cable:
1.
Disconnect the cable from the device and with one hand hold it firmly by the connector to keep the cable taught.
2.
With your other hand, press and hold the cable release button.
CAUTION: Use one hand to control the cable as it retracts. A cable allowed to retract too quickly
and without control can cause possible injury to the user or damage the furniture surface, Cable
Cubby, and nearby items.
3.
With one hand pressing the release button, continue to hold the cable with the other hand and allow it to slowly be pulled
back into the retractor.
4.
When the stop collar (or connector, if the cable does not have a stop collar) is seated against the cable release assembly,
release the button and cable.
