IMPORTANT: CHARGE THE INTERNAL BATTERY IMMEDIATELY AFTER RECEIVING YOUR
RE-LOAD TABLE. IF NOT IN USE, CHARGE MONTHLY TO MAINTAIN THE FULL BATTERY
LIFE. *SELF-CHARGING RE-LOAD TABLES (SC) WILL INCLUDE A CHARGER IN THE BATTERY
COMPARTMENT. *STANDARD RE-LOAD TABLE (DC) DOES NOT INCLUDE A CHARGER.
PH RECOMMENDS A BATTERY CHARGING CART TO BE PURCHASED WITH DC RELOADS
TABLES. A SEPARATE CHARGER IS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE FROM PH.
THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW ARE FOR THE SELF-CHARGING (SC) OR A SEPARATE
CHARGER.
4.1 When it is time to charge the battery the Hub LED should be RED or no color at all.
RED LED indicates battery has little power remaining. No LED’s lit means that battery has
reached shut off point and will no longer charge devices.
4.2 Gain access to the battery compartment by unlocking the handle with the key provided.
(Figure A, page 4, #08)
4.3 Pull back on the handle to release worksurface and tilt vertical.
4.4 Gently pull wire connections “A” & “C” apart, if applicable.
4.5 Locate and connect the “B” wire connector (Charger) to the “C” wire connector (Battery)-
see below Figure B.
4.6 Align the connectors and gently push together.
4.7 Locate and plug the 2-pronged plug into a standard 120V wall outlet to begin the charging.
4.8 The charger will scan the battery to check capacity level and then commence charging.
The GREEN LED light on the charger indicates the charging status.
4.9 Once all the GREEN LED lights are lit solid, the battery is fully charged. It is safe to
leave charger connected to the battery as it will go into a trickle mode or only when needed to
maintain the battery at 100%.
4.10 Leave worksurface open vertical
while charging. If not possible, carefully
route the charger cord so that it is not
pinched when closing top. Weave the
cord thru the corner area of the battery
compartment, and gently lower the
worksurface down until latched.
4.11 When charging is complete, unplug
cord from the wall outlet, unplug the
charger/battery connection by gently
pulling the “B” wire connector and “C”
wire connector apart. DO NOT damage
the wire connection by pulling directly on
the wires, pull only on the connectors’
plastic housing.

5. Using your Re-Load
“RELOAD” YOUR MOBILE DEVICES — ASSUMING NO OTHER
CONNECTIONS ARE MADE
5.1 Align “A” wire connector with “C” wire connector
5.2 Gently push connection together.
5.3 Charging Hub should be lit BLUE (If the LED is RED more charging may be needed).
5.4 Slowly close the worksurface down making sure all wires are kept inside battery
compartment and not in the way of getting pinched. (Figure A, page 4 #06)
5.5 Push in lock to lock handle. Remove key. Your Re-Load is now ready for use.
NOTE: The Re-Load table will charge many devices including cell phones, tablets, cameras,
audio speakers and more. Charging times will vary depending on the mobile device and
how many other devices are being charged at that time. Do not charge mobile devices with
the Re-Load table that cannot accept a charge or are damaged. A 7.5A blade fuse is used
to assist circuitry protection. The Re-Load table Charging Station is only for charging mobile
devices. It will not transfer data.

9Re-Load Instructions RevD Toll Free: 800-788-1028 • www.NomadFlexibleFurniture.com
6. Discharging of battery
6.1 As mobile devices get “Reloaded” from the charging hub, the battery will begin to
slowly discharge.
6.2 When the BLUE LED is lit, this means the internal battery power status is in the range
from 100% to 10%.
6.3 When the RED LED is lit the battery power status is below 10% and needs to be
charged. (The Re-Load hub will continue to “Reload” while LED is RED).
6.4 When there is NO colored LED lit, this means the circuit has shut-off and the internal
battery needs immediate charging of the battery. The Re-Load hub will not charge devices in
this status.
6.5 Please refer to above instructions for charging battery during use, instruction 4.9.
NOTE: While NO colored LED’s are lit, the battery retains a minimal power level. This
protects the battery from a deep discharge. Batteries that go into a deep discharge state
have a shortened life cycle. A safe battery shut-off is integrated into the circuitry of Re-
Load. This allows the Re-Load battery a longer and safer life cycle. Under normal working
conditions and proper maintenance, the battery should last 3+ years.
7. Removing internal battery
Over duration of using the ReLoad table it might be necessary to remove the internal battery.
Please follow below instructions for easy removal.
7.1 Gain access to the battery compartment by unlocking the handle with the key provided.
(Figure A, page 4, #08)
7.2 Pull back on the handle to release worksurface and tilt vertical.
7.3 Locate internal battery in the compartment.
7.4 Make sure all wire connections have been released from each other.
7.5 Locate Velcro strap and loosen the strap.
7.6 Locate vinyl strap on battery, slide hand between strap and battery pull upward. Use
your other hand to lift battery and get firm hold on it. Battery weighs 13 lbs. so please DO
NOT DROP.
7.7 To place battery back into compartment, make sure Velcro strap is flipped back on each
side so the battery fits between.
7.8 Make sure all wires and wire connections are not under battery.
7.9 Tighten Velcro strap to hold battery back in place.
PLEASE RECYCLE OLD BATTERIES BY CONTACTING 1-800-BATTERY FOR LOCAL DROP-
OFF LOCATIONS OR PICKUP SERVICES.

8. Table base
9. Work surface and charging hub
8.1 The Re-Load table base consists of two parts, Upper Welded Assembly and Lower Welded
Assembly (X-base).
8.2 The Lower Welded Assembly portion is held in place with machine screws and star
washer. Regularly inspect this connection. To do so; slowly tip table onto its side, exposing the
access hole on the bottom of the Lower Welded Assembly. Use a 1/2” socket with extension
to ensure the bolts are tight. DO NOT over-tighten or you could damage internal parts, snap
the bolt head off, and void warranty.
8.3 The Re-Load table comes standard with (4) 2.5” locking casters. To engage the lock on the
caster, push down gently on the caster lever with your foot. To disengage, push gently on the
upper caster lever. There is a slight movement in the caster lever while locking or unlocking.
9.1 The Re-Load worksurface is made of 1-1/8” thick particleboard, with .030 HPL and
balanced backer.
9.2 The Edge on the worksurface is a durable casted polyurethane.
9.3 Cleaning of the worksurface requires a solution similar to Fantastic or diluted Simple
Green. Spray onto a rag and then wipe down the top. DO NOT spray directly onto worksurface.
Moisture could get into the USB ports and cause a short circuit of the Charging Hub.
9.4 DO NOT use concentrated bleach on the polyurethane edge, as this may cause
discoloration.
9.5 The Charging Hub is made from highly durable ABS plastic.
9.6 To clean Charging Hub, spray onto a lint free cloth. Lightly dampen the cloth with cleaning
solution and wipe hub. DO NOT spray directly onto the Charging Hub.

10. Storage
10.1 If the Re-Load table will be stored for a considerable amount of time, please charge the
internal battery fully.
10.2 All batteries are affected by temperature. The ideal storage temperature is 70°F. The
internal battery will gradually self-discharge (lose power) over time, especially in warm/cold
environments. To ensure satisfactory performance and avoid permanent damage, charge
the internal battery every month. Leaving the battery in a discharged state may result in
permanent battery damage.
10.3 Store in a dry environment.
