MARINE POWER CORD REEL

Tools Required: Drill, Wire Stripers, 5/16 Wrench, Tape Measure, Phillips Screwdriver

Parts Included: 1 Cord Reel

Additional Parts: (Available from TRC) Switch assembly MH2021, Exit hawse pipe and cap H306

Installation Procedure

1. Identify compartment where the cord reel will be installed. The reel can be hung from a bulkhead or from the underside

of the deck or secured to the oor.

2. Measure the compartment to insure there is enough space for the reel. Dimensional drawings are available at

http://www.shorelinereels.com. Do not forget to leave room for the power cord to exit through the oor or wall directly in

front of or below the cord reel.

3. For proper operation the cord exit must be centered with the center of the spool. The distance away from the spool is

not important, only that it is centered. If the exit is not centered the cord will wrap on the side of the spool closest to the

exit and could bind on the reel.

4. Place the cord reel in the compartment.

5. Mark the oor, wall or compartment where mounting bolts or screws will be located. Remove reel from compartment

and drill holes for mounting bolts or screws. If reel is to be hung from the top of a compartment it must be installed into a

steel frame component. Hanging reels from a wooden compartment is not recommended. If mounting on a plastic oor,

a stiffening board or plate must be added.

6. Place cord reel back in compartment and install mounting screws or bolts.

7. If installing an exit hawse pipe and hatch, drill or cut opening. For proper operation the cord exit must be centered with

the center of the spool. Feed plug head and cord through the exit hawse pipe. Install the black ball stops (using the size

that best ts your application) on the hawse pipe using thread locker on the screws. Install exit hawse pipe in opening

and secure with 4 appropriate marine grade fasteners and sealant, such as 5200.

WARNING: To Reduce the Risk of Electric Shock, disconnect the main VAC power source prior to

proceeding. This unit contains 110 VAC. The wiring should be only done by a qualied electrician.

8. Connect the pigtail from the cord reel to the junction box or power switch where the original power cord was connected.

The cord reel conductors are color coded to match the colors on the existing mains supply.
