toe-kick mounting holes are approximately 1/2” dia.)
4. Drill holes into the oor and anchor the toe-kick with appropriate fasteners.
5. Carefully lift the lectern back onto the toe-kick and align the (4) mounting holes.

Cord reel operation
Operating Instructions:
1. To latch cord - Pull cord out to full length. Allow the cord to retract 1-2 feet back into
the reel. Pull the cord out slowly. When a ‘click’ is heard, the cord will latch in place.
2. Plug into 110-125V (single phase), 3-conductor wall outlet.
3. To release cord - Unplug from wall outlet. Pull cord out slowly until clicking stops.
The latch will release and the cord can be guided back into the reel. Do not allow the
cord to y unrestricted back into the reel.
4. Do not overload or circuit breaker (15-amp maximum) will cut off current. To restore
power, remove overload, wait two minutes, then reset the circuit breaker by pressing
the button on the back of the 3-prong male power plug.
Maintenance:
1. Remove dirt and grime as soon as it accumulates on the reel case by using a soft,
damp cloth (a mild detergent may be used if needed), being careful not to wet
the electrical plug. Never immerse any part of the unit in any solution to clean.
DO NOT use solvents such as gasoline, turpentine, etc. to clean unit.
2. Keep cord clean to assure smoothest automatic retraction. Simply pull cord to its
full length and allow to retract through a dampened rag. Pull out full length again
and sprinkle cord with talcum powder.
Specications:
15’ retractable, 15-amp, 125V, 12 AWG with breaker, UL Listed
