3.0 CORDREEL INSTALLATION
3.1 Before You Start the Installaon
There are a few requirements that need to be followed in the planning of your installaon;
• The shore power cable roung from the Cord reel to where it exits the boat (normally through a hatch or Hawse
Pipe). Be sure that cable is routed in a straight path, free from any obstacles/hoses/wire. If the cable exit/entry at
the Cordreel is not in the center of the reel, it is very possible the cable will coil on only one side of the reel which
could cause binding during manual retracon. There are some accessories you can purchase to help center the
cable onto the Cordreel. (See secon 7 for accessories.)
• The Cord reel is basically an electrical panel with three juncons. The side of unit, terminal block on hub and
sliprings internally. Make sure that the Cord reel is installed in a locaon where it is protected from the environ-
ment. It is best not to have the unit mounted underneath any appliances/equipment/tanks that use water, fuel,
oil. The unit is water resistant but not waterproof, so if any leaks happen, then the unit would be compromised
and required to be replaced.
• The unit will need basic maintenance and servicing from me to me, so the unit should be mounted where there
is free access to the side cover and center of hub.
3.2 Installaon Conguraons
The Cordreel (50/63) is capable of being mounted in mulple conguraons:
3.3 Mounng Instrucons
Front Mount (std. conguraon)
• The Cordreel will be mounted to either the oor or the overhead of the compartment where it will be located. If
on the overhead, proper support brackeng must be provided by installer.
• Allow clearance for the Cordreel storage spool to operate freely without obstrucon or interference, and for the
connecon of the power cable from your power supply.
• Install the Cordreel using 1/4” bolts, 1” long minimum. Bolt unit in each of the four corners. See above for bolng
locaons. Look for
NOTE: Unspooling the power cord before mounng the Cordreel can aid installaon in ght spaces.

3.5 Installing the Hawse Pipe (oponal accessory)
The installaon of the Hawse Pipe is oponal.
You may also use your exisng Hawse Pipe or any
storage space door that is accessible to where you
select the power cord to exit.
• Before drilling or cung, be certain that the area
behind the Hawse Pipe is free of wires, plumbing
or structural supports.
• Mounng surface should be a minimum of 1/2”
thick. Proper thickness may be achieved by using a
bu block of marine-grade plywood behind the
mounng surface.
• Mount Hawse Pipe.
3.6 Connect AC Power to Unit “Pigtail” Cable
The “pigtail” that comes on the Cordreel must
be connected to the juncon box or power switch that
supplies 125v or 250v to the boats electrical system.
• Strip the insulaon from the end of the “pigtail” as
well as the green, white, black, and red wires
within the insulaon jacket.
• Aach appropriate connectors to each wire and
aach to the juncon box.
WARNING:
• All wiring should be done in ac-
cordance with ABYC’s standards. If
you are unsure of these stand-
ards, consult a qualied electri-
cian.
• Failure to wire correctly may re-
sult in DEATH, INJURY OR DAM-
AGE TO PERSONS, VESSESL, OR
UNIT. Terminals are marked for
correct wiring: LINE, NEUTRAL, &
GROUND.

3.8 Control Switch
• Mount the control switch near where the cable exits
the side of the boat.
• Connect red quick connector terminal to the tabs on
the control switch.
The Cordreel comes with (2) 14 gauge wires exing from
the gear motor cover.
• These wires should be connected to the 12 or 24
VDC power source depending on unit purchased
(see label on unit for correct voltage).
• Connect wire to DC baery as shown to le.
• Make sure all connecons are secured and protect-
ed from the environment.

dockside power post connecon.
• CONNECT your shore power cord to dockside power post connecon.
• TURN ON breaker at dockside power post.
When ready to get underway:
• TURN OFF dockside power post connecon.
• DISCONNECT cord from the dockside power post connecon.
• PUSH AND HOLD the Cordreel power switch . Cordreel will electrically retrieve the power cord and store.
• When cord is fully retracted, RELEASE the power switch to stop the unit.
4.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE:
• Always disconnect AND fully retract
your cable BEFORE geng underway!
• Connuing to push power buon
aer cable is retracted may cause dam-
age to the motor and will cause breaker
switch to trip - reset before next use.

5.0 MAINTENANCE
• TO RELIEVE ANY KINKING that may happen Rounely extend the power cable completely, stretch it on any at sur-
face, and allow the Cordreel to retract the cable into the reel.
• INSPECT ALL AC AND DC WIRING CONNECTIONS and make sure they are free of corrosion and connecons are
ght.
• IF THE POWER CABLE ACCIDENTALLY FALLS INTO THE WATER, do not use unl the cable has been cleaned and
dried fully. See Marine Molded Power Cord Sets 044xx User Guide for more informaon.
• INSPECT THE EXTERIOR JACKET of the power cable for nicks or cuts.
• IF YOUR POWER CABLE IS DIRTY, any cleaner should be compable with the outer jacket material of the power
cable.
• IF NEEDING TO REPLACE POWER CORDSET—Contact Glendinning Products, LLC. For replacement cordset. If using
another manufacturer’s cordset, USE ONLY 105°c MINIMUM RATED CORDSETS. Also make sure that the outside
diameter of the new cordset does not exceed that of the factory supplied cordset. Contact Glendinning Prods. For
