Install the switch clamp on the power drive handle so the
tab depresses the power switch to the “ON” position. See
Figure 10.
Remove the side handle from the power drive. Slide the
power drive head onto the drive coupler on the puller.
Rotate the power drive to ease installation and clear the
drive cradle. When installed correctly, the power drive will
set into the cradle. See Figure 11.
Put the side handle through the hole in the cradle and
install into the pipe threader. See Figure 12. This will
secure the power drive to the puller. Other power drive
units will require a similar procedure.
3. Install the foot switch (optional - model CP15).
Use of a foot switch with this puller is recommended to
insure optimal operator control. Connect the power drive
cord to the foot switch. Connect the foot switch to a
suitable receptacle or extension cord. Always use
extension cords rated for outdoor use.
DANGER: Electrical equipment must be grounded
while in use to protect the operator from electric shock.
DANGER: Only use extension cords that are rated
and marked for outdoor use.
DANGER: Never use this equipment in rain or
damp locations.
DANGER: Disconnect power before service
or repair.
8.0 OPERATION
8.1 Preparation
Preparing for the pull is a very important part of the operation.
This can affect the safety of all the personnel and prevent
damage to the equipment.
1. Check the conduit and raceway system. Is it secure and
able to withstand the total pulling forces? Is it the proper
size for the cables?
2. Check all the pulling system components. Make sure they
are in good operating condition and have the proper
load rating.
3. Determine the length and direction of each pull segment.
Consider the puller load rating.
4.Inspect the operation area. Is there ample room for all
personnel and equipment? Is the area safe?
WARNING: Only operate in well lighted areas.
DANGER: Do not operate in an area that contains
hazardous or combustible material. A fire or explosion
can result.
5. Make sure there are enough personnel to operate the pull
safely. Clear the area of all other people.
WARNING: Keep the work area clear of
all bystanders.
8.2 Setup
The CP2000 can be adjusted to reach and pull from many
positions. This can reduce the need to install additional
