WARNING: OPERATE THIS FIXTURE ONLY AT THE VOLTAGE OF YOUR SPECIFIC SUPPLY CIRCUIT. FAILURE
TO DO SOWILL RESULT IN DAMAGE TOTHE FIXTURE.
WARNING: SUBSTITUTE COMPONENTS MAY IMPAIR SAFETY.
OPERATING
Before operation, confirm that the power source will provide the correct voltage indicated on the product
nameplate. Ensure the receptacle will accept the cord cap attached to the light.
Place the light in the desired location and run its power cord to a power source.
The light head can be adjusted by loosening the screws on each side, positioning the light head and tightening

PERSONNEL SAFETY
Personal injury and/or equipment damage may result if proper safety precautions are not observed.
Ensure that power supply voltage does not exceed maximum voltage rating of reel.
Ensure that reel is properly installed before connecting to power supply.
Ensure that all electrical power is removed from reel before servicing.
A high-tension spring assembly is contained within the reel. Exercise extreme caution.
Check for frayed and/or broken wires before each use.
Pull electrical cord from reel by grasping the electrical cord itself, not the work device.
If an electrical malfunction should occur, remove power from reel immediately.
Ensure that reel, electrical cord, and equipment being serviced are properly grounded Use an
ohmmeter to check ground continuity.
If reel ceases to unwind or rewind, remove power immediately. Do not pull or jerk on electrical
cord.
Treat and respect the reel as any other piece of machinery, observing all common safety
practices.
TROUBLE SHOOTING INSTRUCTIONS
Troubleshooting of the reel consists of isolating a problem to a defective cord/work device, brushholder,
brushes, or collector. Refer any other discrepancies only to an authorized service person or directly to
Larson Electronics.
WARNING: The following procedure directs the technician to take voltage measurements.
Remember, even low voltage is dangerous and can cause personal injury or death. Exercise
extreme caution!
1. If work device is either an incandescent or fluorescent light, replace bulb with a known good
bulb. If this does not correct the problem, proceed to step 2. If work device is an electrical
receptacle, ensure that tool or fixture connected to it is in good working order.
2. Remove power from reel.
3. Remove access cover.
4. Reapply power to reel.
5. Check for correct voltage at terminal strip. If voltage reading is correct, replace electrical
cord/work device. If voltage reading is incorrect, proceed to step 6.
6. Remove power from reel.
7. Remove brushholder from reel and inspect brushholder and brushes. Replace defective
components. Proceed to step 8.
8. Reapply power to reel.
9. Check for correct voltage at terminal strip. If voltage reading is still incorrect, replace defective
collector.
10. Replace access cover.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
Maintain reel by following the service instructions given below. Refer all other repairs, other than those
listed, only to an authorized service person or directly to Larson Electronics. Failure to do so can result in
personal injury and/or equipment damage and may void the warranty.
WARNING: Remove power from reel before performing the following procedures.
1. Inspect reel for damage. Turn by hand to check for smooth operation. Check for
completeness.
2. If needed to configure reel for top, side or bottom-wind (bottom-wind for constant tension
reels only) electrical cord dispensing by removing screws, securing guide arm bracket.
Determine new guide arm location and remove corresponding screws. Position guide arm
bracket to reel and replace screws.
3. Connect power to reel.
CAUTION: Unless the reel was specified differently when ordering, the maximum installation
height is 16 feet. Do not exceed this distance.
WARNING: Ensure that the power supply voltage does not exceed maximum voltage rating of
reel. Observe applicable NEC. OSHA, and local electrical codes.

SPRING TENSION
If necessary, adjust spring tension on reel by adding or removing wraps of electrical cord from
spool, one wrap at a time, until desired tension is obtained. Add wraps to increase tension.
Remove wraps to decrease tension.
WARNING: When adding wraps of electrical cord, be careful not to exceed the winding
mechanism’s spring capacity. Add just enough wraps of cord to achieve the desired tension.
Damage to the winding mechanism will result if spring is over-tensioned.
Always beware of spring tension on reel. Exercise extreme caution.
CAUTION: To eliminate heating and damage to reel cord, pull all cord from reel if electrical load
approaches maximum rating.
QUADPOD
The quadpod assembly consists of 4 parts:
1. T-head
2. Extension Pole
3. Leg Base
4. Wheel Base

The quadpod can be rolled around on its wheels. Ensure the legs are folded up before tilting quadpod
to maneuver.
Use appropriate measures to attach equipment tothe top of T-head. Predrill holes through top and
bottom and utilize bolts for mounting heavy equipment.
WARNING: Use caution before tilting quadpod with aheavy load. For heavy loads, itis
recommended to remove the T-head prior to transporting via wheel base!Failure to do so may cause
serious injury. Larson Electronics shall notbe held liable for injuries caused by misuse.

1. Place tower in desired location that is flat and able to support the quadpod without falling over.
2. Loosen hand screw and lower legs until firmly stabilizing quadpod.
3. Tighten hand screw to secure legs.
4. With help, place the T-head over top pole and tighten hand screw.
Light weight devices can be attached by tilting quadpod toward the ground with the legs up. Attach T-
head to pole, tighten hand screw and tilt back to its vertical position. DO NOT tilt quadpod while
extended to max height. It is recommended to have another person hold the quadpod while tilting
vertically.
For heavy equipment, use a ladder and extra help for attaching T-head to pole.
Double check that all hand screws are tight before continuing use of the quadpod tower.
EXTENDING
1. Loosen hand screw for extending the T-head.Once loose, extend T-head until desired height
is achieved with at least 1ft - 2ft remaining inside pole for support. This adjustable and collapsible
quadpod can be extended to twelve feet and collapsed to four and a half feet
WARNING: DO NOTover extend T-head completely allowing extension pole to free from base! If the
T- head becomes free, serious injury or death can occur. Larson Electronics shall not be held liable for
injuries caused by misuse.
2. When desired height isachieved, tighten hand screw to secure T-head.
LOWERING
1. To lower mast, grasp T-head and slowly loosen hand screw. Lower the T- head and tighten
hand screw.
WARNING: DO NOT loosen hand screw allowing T- head to fall freely. This can damage the unit and
cause serious injury or death. Always grasp T-head before lowering. Larson Electronics shall not be
held liable for injuries caused by misuse.
The quadpod mount tower can be disassembled for storage or transporting. Unplug attached
equipment from power source and remove T-head following previous steps for attaching.
Once the T-head has been removed, loosen hand screw for legs and fold them up. Wheel to desired
location or remove from wheel base for complete disassembly.
