Cable Clamp

A cable clamp (11) is provided on the base.

Cable guards

The continuous cable guard (8) is height-adjustable by means of 

three thumb-wheels (9). These have numbers printed on their upper 

surfaces.

Rotate each thumb-wheel in turn to set the cable guard to the required 

height, ensuring that each thumb-wheel is set to the same number.

The cable guard incorporates a spring-loaded mechanism to prevent 

damage if the pedestal is pulled over an obstacle.
