Rapid-Air CABINET REEL: 15, 25, 40 & 60 SERIES - Manual (Page 3)

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR CABINET REEL
SERIES 15, 25, 40, 60
INSTALLATION
1. The reel that you have just received is fully assembled and ready to be put into
position. Due to shipment vibration, the reel should be checked to be sure that all
screws and bolts are tight and that all electrical components are in place inside the
cabinet; visually inspect the reel for damaged parts due to shipment. If the reel was
damaged in shipment, contact the carrier first to report the damage and then your
distributor.
2. Install the reel on a level surface with sufficient clearance for loading and
unloading the coils.
3. Wiring
The series 15, 25, & 40 reel is completely self contained and needs only to be
plugged into a 20 amp, 120 volt, 60 Hz outlet. If an extension cord is used as a
source to the reel, it should be a minimum #12 gauge wire to keep the voltage loss
down and for electrical safety reasons.
The series 60 reel or series 40 reel with a 3 hp motor, although completely wire,
requires a 240 volt, 1 pH, 60 Hz input. Rapid Air has provided a point of connection
in the form of a fused disconnect box for this purpose. Once the input wiring is
complete, the reel should be ready to run electrically.
The following pages are intended to familiarize you with the reel no matter what the
size. If, after reading the manual, you have questions on the operation on the reel,
we would appreciate hearing from you.
