3.2 Inspecting the complete FlexPendant Retractable Cable
Action
Examine that the cable stopper is in place and
cannot be moved.
Examine that no foreign objects or liquids are in-
side the cable reel. If so, remove it.
To test the stop device, retraction spring, and
brake:
1 Pull out at least 2 meters of the retractable
cable to make sure that the stop device is
working, that is, that the cable stays pulled
out. There should be a click-clack sound
while pulling out the cable.
2 Pull out the entire retractable cable and
release it so the cable retracts. Examine
that the entire cable length is retracted
slowly.
3 Pull out cable and release it. Stop the re-
traction to make sure that the stop device
is working.
4 Repeat 4 times.
Examine that there is sealing glue on all locking
screws. Do not remove the glue.
Action
Make sure that the holding screw of the bracket
is tight.
Examine the connectors and cabling to make sure
they are securely attached and that the cabling is
not damaged.
