Manhole: Disassemble unit and pass down frame and reel separately. Loosen ball knob to separate frame and reel.
Position Horizontally or Vertically: To change position of reel, loosen ball knob approximately 6 turns and rotate reel around pivot axle.
Re-tighten ball knob (hand tighten only).
Feed Rollers: Reset feed rollers by loosening brake handle approximately 1/2", pulling feed roller arm out toward brace handle and rotating to
new position. NOTE: Feed rollers will only engage in two positions - do not force.
1. Identify both ends of conduit. Ensure switch gear or other components in area will not be damaged by rod entering vault or box.
2. Insert rod through safety feed guide. Failure to do so can cause a hazardous condition.
3. Adjust drag brake by tightening or loosening handle so rod does not feed itself from reel.
4. Insert rodder end into conduit.
5. Push rodder through conduit using short thrusts (approximately 6-12" long). This takes advantage of rod's column strength and minimizes
risk of breakage.
6. Pay attention to feel of rod. When rod end enters box at end of conduit and contacts vault or box wall, impact vibrations can normally be felt
in rod.
7. Attach wire or cable being pulled to the Pulling Eye using standard methods.
8. When recoiling rod onto reel, loosen drag brake, allowing reel to turn freely. Use short, straight pulls from conduit to push back onto reel.
Do not bend, twist or jerk rod. Do not spin reel manually in an attempt to recoil rod on reel.
9. If pull is halted, check for kinking in cable or wire at entry.
If job requires more rod than is on reel, you can use an additional reel with rod and attach this rod to existing rod. Using Swivel Coupling, attach
the beginning of new rod to end of already installed rod.
1. Attach male grapple to one Big Buddy and begin rodding duct from one end.
2. Attach female grapple to other Big Buddy and begin rodding from opposite end of duct.
3. When the two grapples meet, they lock together inside the duct, enabling the pull.
